Overview
Railpen Darlington, England, United Kingdom
Join to apply for the Finance Analyst role at Railpen. This is a permanent role in our Darlington offices with a hybrid working environment.
The role
The Finance Analyst will support the treasury pillar within accounting operations, assisting with daily payments, bank reconciliations, and transactional processes. You’ll be responsible for inputs into the sub ledger and general ledger close process, working within a robust financial controls framework. A key part of the role is working closely with finance teams as well as the wider business to ensure accuracy, compliance, and efficiency. You will also identify opportunities for improvement across the process systems under your control.
This role is not eligible for visa sponsorship. Applicants must have the legal right to work in the UK.
The person
We’re looking for a motivated Finance Analyst to join our Finance team. Experience across treasury, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accounting operations, including sub ledger and general ledger inputs would be a distinct advantage, however this isn’t essential. You will have the ability to work towards clear daily deadlines, support financial controls, and contribute to process improvements – all while looking to build a strong foundation for a long-term career in finance.
You will be detail focused, structured, and thrive in a process driven, transactional finance environment. You take ownership of your work, meet deadlines with accuracy, and are proactive in identifying ways to improve processes. Collaborative and motivated to learn, you’re ready to build a long-term career in finance, whether you’re a recent graduate or have some early career experience.
Our values of integrity, community and alignment are the guiding principles that influence our behaviour. They help us make decisions and shape our relationships with others. They’re what we stand for. You will actively demonstrate our values, helping to create a safe environment, to place the needs of the community above oneself and, through a culture of ‘fair challenge’, align to the best interests of our members.
