As Data and Reporting Analyst – Finance, you will be the link between Finance and Analytics, translating Finance requirements into trusted datasets, reports, analytical models and controlled automation. This is a data role, not an accounting or finance practitioner role. Using technical expertise, analytical judgement and business partnership, you will deliver solutions that improve information accuracy, efficiency and accessibility, strengthen controls and support decisions. Responsibilities include:

• Build and maintain reliable pipelines, transformations, data models and reporting datasets using SQL and appropriate integration tools, with validation, documentation and monitoring.

• Translate Finance requirements into scalable models, reports, dashboards and workflow prototypes, documenting business definitions, calculation logic and acceptance criteria.

• Develop and govern reusable Finance datasets, semantic models and reporting standards for analysts and stakeholders, with clear definitions, lineage, access controls and quality checks.

• Own multiple data and reporting initiatives, managing priorities, dependencies, risks and stakeholder expectations to deliver accurate, tested solutions on time.

• Partner with Finance stakeholders and experts on reporting, planning, reconciliation and controls, clarifying requests and turning agreed needs into robust data and reporting solutions.

• Analyse financial and operational data to explain performance, variances and emerging issues, identify root causes and seek further evidence where conclusions remain unsupported.

• Work to deliver appropriate AI uses in Finance reporting: assisted analysis, anomaly detection, forecasting support, documentation and natural-language access to governed data, with human review and sensitive-information controls.

• Use automation, low-code tools and AI workflows to reduce manual data preparation, recurring reporting and avoidable Finance administration, retaining approvals, auditability and exception handling.

• Establish and monitor Finance data-quality controls, investigate exceptions and test, document and communicate changes to sources, definitions and calculations.

• Maintain technical and business documentation and support Finance users of the role’s datasets, reports and analytical solutions.

Skills/Requirements:

• Degree or equivalent practical experience in data analytics, computer science, information systems, engineering, mathematics or a related quantitative field.

• Strong hands-on Power BI or comparable BI experience, covering data modelling, DAX or equivalent logic, dashboards, security and performance optimisation.

• Excellent written and verbal communication, explaining data, reporting logic and technical issues clearly to Finance and non-technical stakeholders.

• Advanced SQL and strong experience with relational databases, transformations, dimensional models and large datasets, including diagnosing quality and performance issues.

• Strong Microsoft 365 and Power Platform knowledge, particularly Excel, Power Query, Power Automate and related tools for analysis, workflow automation and controlled business solutions.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, accuracy and ownership of business-critical data assets.

• Knowledge of Finance concepts, reporting cycles, reconciliations, controls, budgets and performance measures, plus experience supporting Finance, is desirable, not mandatory. Candidates must be able to develop this understanding to translate Finance needs into data solutions. No finance or professional accounting qualification is required.

• Practical understanding of AI-assisted analytics and automation, use-case evaluation, output validation, and data privacy, security and governance.
