Junior Financial Analyst

Make your mark as a Junior Financial Analyst in the Financial Services sector, based in Nottingham.

Financial Services firms outside London are quietly building some of the strongest analyst teams in the country, and Nottingham has become a genuine hub for it. This is an established, growing SME with defined processes and a clear structure, the kind of place where a Junior Financial Analyst can learn properly rather than get thrown in at the deep end. The finance function here handles real client and business outcomes, not just spreadsheets for their own sake.

Here's what you'll be doing

Prepare monthly management accounts and variance reports under guidance from senior analysts

Build and maintain financial models to support budgeting and forecasting cycles

Reconcile ledgers and investigate discrepancies before they become problems

Support the wider Financial Services team with data gathering for regulatory and audit requirements

Analyse trends in revenue, costs and margins, then summarise findings for management

Assist with ad hoc financial analysis requests as the business grows

Here are the skills you'll need

A degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or a related field (or equivalent experience)

Strong Excel skills. Confidence with formulas, pivot tables and basic modelling

An analytical mind that spots patterns and questions numbers that don't add up

Clear written and verbal communication, since you'll explain figures to non-finance colleagues

Attention to detail. In Financial Services, small errors carry real weight

A genuine interest in progressing toward a recognised finance qualification

Key perks and benefits

Salary of £24,500 to £28,500, plus bonus scheme

Private medical insurance and pension contribution

Generous annual leave with flexible working built in around office life

Office-based role in Nottingham, working alongside an experienced finance team

Structured professional development, with room to grow as the company grows

Why pursue a career in Financial Services?

Financial Services rewards precision and curiosity in equal measure, and it rarely stands still. Nottingham's finance scene has expanded steadily over recent years, giving analysts based here the kind of regional opportunity that used to mean relocating to London. Start as a Junior Financial Analyst, build your technical grounding, and the progression from there tends to move quickly for people who take the detail seriously.

This Junior Financial Analyst opportunity is brought to you by The Opportunity Hub UK.
