You will be analytical, numerate and detail-oriented, with a strong problem-solving mindset and the ability to work accurately to tight reporting deadlines. You will also be a proactive self-starter who is comfortable taking ownership of your work while continuing to learn and develop.

Previous exposure to financial consolidation, IFRS, SAP, Oracle or other large ERP and financial reporting systems would be advantageous. Strong communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships across Finance and the wider business are also important.
