You’ve got an analytical mindset, with strong communication skills and a passion for turning complex datasets into actionable insights. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and are driven to contribute to a dynamic team. 

What You’ll Bring

• Advanced Excel and expert-level financial modelling capability
• Experience building complex business case or M&A models
• Strong understanding of P&L, revenue drivers, and commercial outcomes
