Job Description
Your new company
Part of a highly respected global automotive brand, this opportunity sits within the UK controlling team, a function that's central to both operational performance and strategic direction. As the organisation evolves its digital capabilities and expands its financial oversight across commercial vehicles, this newly created role offers a high-impact position supporting margin and discount governance for new truck sales.
Your new role
As Finance Analyst - Revenue, you'll work closely with senior stakeholders, including finance, sales and HQ, to deliver trusted financial insight. You'll be responsible for:
* Managing and reviewing new vehicle discounts and associated margin analysis
* Supporting the Revenue Controller with monthly reporting, budgeting and approvals
* Deputising in meetings, project work, and planning cycles when required
* Analysing complex datasets and producing performance reports for senior management
* Acting as a key business partner across sales, product, and HQ teams
* Driving process enhancement and digitalisation across financial workflows
* Preparing and reviewing accruals, special discount provisions and compliance checks
* Supporting month-end activities and contributing to forecast planning
This is not a transactional role-it's strategic, commercial, and full of ownership. You'll be involved in value-focused decision-making and will gain exposure to a wide cross-section of the business.
What you'll need to succeed
We're looking for a confident, driven and detail-focused finance professional-someone ready to take initiative, own outcomes and stick their teeth into complex challenges. You'll ideally have:
* Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
* Experience with contribution margin control and discount governance
* Highly analytical mindset with advanced Excel or Power BI experience
* Knowledge of financial systems and a keenness to improve digital workflows
* A qualification or part-qualification (ACCA, CIMA, ACA) or interest in studying
* Experience in a controller or commercial finance role-rather than pure accounting
* An understanding of the automotive sector or asset finance would be an advantage, though not essential.
What you'll get in return
This is a fantastic opportunity to step into a fast-paced, visible role with real scope to grow into leadership. The package includes up to £55,000 salary, study support towards qualification, hybrid working and exposure to both the UK and group finance structure.
