Finance Analyst

Salary: £26,000 – £31,200 per year

Are you a Finance Analyst looking for a career path in a place people love to work? Then this could be the role for you! We are currently looking for a new team of Finance Analysts to join our rapidly expanding FTSE250 business.

We are a multi-award-winning housebuilder that operates nationally across 16 regions and 3 timber frame factories. Our Partnerships Midlands Division operates across 5 regions from East Midlands to Bristol/South West. Right now, as part of our continued growth plans, we are setting up a Divisional Hub in our offices at Grove Park in Leicester and are seeking a team of Finance Analysts to support the Divisional Finance Manager.

About the role

As a Finance Analyst you will take a lead role in preparing the month end journals and reporting while providing support and insight for Regional and Divisional Management. You will become part of a team of high quality individuals which forms the backbone of consistent, timely and accurate financial information in support of decision making by senior management.

You will also work closely with our Assistant Finance Analysts, reviewing their work and aiding their development through coaching and mentoring.

Joining at this point in the process allows an opportunity to help shape the way in which the Hub operates.

What you’ll need

We want the best! We want passionate and driven people who want to do the best work of their lives to keep growing our business and themselves. People who really care, want to grow together, take pride in everything they do and deliver results.

Ideally having trained within the big 4/top 10, you will be keen to develop yourself and your role. You will have strong technical skills, good attention to detail and be able to utilise analytical tools to provide insight to senior management. You’ll be great at relationship building with your Regional FDs and also be comfortable with challenging assumptions and ensuring adherence to group policies.

The role will be predominantly based at the Hub in the East Midlands but candidates will need to be willing to visit the geographical regional teams as required. Flexibility is key in order to deliver to key deadlines, especially during the time pressures of the month end process.

What’s in it for you?

Countryside offers high potential for personal growth and development, with exposure to a highly regarded and aspiring team in a visible role with future opportunities for more senior roles within the Hub, a central role within the group function or a commercial role within Regional Finance.

We start by putting our people first. We offer industry leading salaries and benefit packages, inclusive of an excellent bonus scheme, private healthcare, a generous pension, and a full range of flexible benefits to suit you. On top of this, and as part of our Culture Transformation, we offer flexible working, Christmas off “for free”, freshly refurbished offices and we dress for our day! We also invest heavily in our people and are passionate about helping them succeed.
