Job Title: Finance Analyst (CIMA / ACCA Part-Qualified)
Location: Manchester (Hybrid - just 1 day a week in the office)
Salary: £35,000 - £45,000
Job Type: Full Time, Permanent

• A Business That’s Scaling Fast (and Smart): This is growth done right. With a clear strategy, investment in innovation, and a focus on people, this business is serious about making an impact. You’ll be part of a finance function that’s close to the action and central to decision-making.
• A Manager Who Backs You: You’ll report to a high-performing Head of Finance Business Partnering who believes in autonomy, not micromanagement. Expect proper support, clear development, and the freedom to own your space.
• Hybrid That Works: They only ask for 1 day a week in their central Manchester office. The rest is remote, giving you the flexibility to do your best work your way.
• Commercial Exposure from Day One: You'll support contract performance, deliver margin insights, and help drive financial strategy—no back-office number crunching here. If you’re a Part-Qualified Analyst looking for a more commercially focused role, you’ll thrive.

This business is doing brilliant things in the healthcare space—50+ sites, 500+ staff, and growing fast. They’re making smart investments in digital services and expanding access to care across the UK. It’s a rare mix: commercially savvy and genuinely values-driven.

You’ll be joining a finance team that sits at the heart of operations. Your role will be hands-on, analytical, and strategic. You’ll work closely with the Finance Business Partner and have a front-row seat to how good decisions get made—think contract margins, pricing, cost models, and performance analysis.

• Assisting with financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting

• Delivering variance and margin analysis to support contract performance

• Building dashboards and reports in Excel, Power BI, and Datarails

• Supporting tenders and new business modelling

• Helping track costs and revenue across multiple service lines

• Working closely with operational teams and translating data into clear insights

• You’re studying towards CIMA or ACCA and looking to take the next step in your career

• You’ve got experience as a finance analyst, assistant management accountant, or similar in industry

• You’re curious, commercially-minded, and not afraid to challenge the numbers

• You’re comfortable with data tools and keen to build out your MI/reporting skills

• You want to grow with a business that promotes from within and develops future leaders

Because this isn’t just another analyst role. It’s a chance to build commercial muscle, work with people who value your ideas, and be part of a business doing meaningful work at scale.

You'll be trusted, supported, and challenged in equal measure - and you’ll make a real impact while you’re at it.
