Financial Analyst

We're helping an international finance and M&A consultancy find a Financial Analyst to support transaction advisory, fundraising, and strategic finance projects for high-growth startups and scaleups.

This is a hands on, high accountability role where flawless work is non negotiable - your analyses will directly inform key decisions and client strategies.

This role is ideal for someone who is a wizard with numbers, detail obsessed yet commercially minded, and capable of seeing both the story and strategy behind the spreadsheets.
