Commercial Finance Analyst

Bristol | Hybrid Working

A high-growth Bristol-based business is looking to appoint a Commercial Finance Analyst into a broad and highly visible finance role.

This is an opportunity suited to either:

  • a recently ACA-qualified accountant who has already made the move into industry, or
  • someone coming from a graduate rotation / finance scheme within a commercial business who is now looking for broader exposure and faster progression.

The role sits within a scaling environment where finance is closely involved in commercial decision-making, strategic planning and business growth — making it ideal for someone who enjoys variety, pace and visibility beyond traditional reporting.

You’ll gain exposure across:

  • FP&A and forecasting
  • Commercial finance and business partnering
  • Pricing and margin analysis
  • Strategic projects and performance insight
  • M&A and growth-related activity
  • Process improvement and building scalable finance infrastructure

The business is looking for someone commercially curious, proactive and ambitious — someone who wants to grow with the organisation rather than sit in a narrow siloed role.

 

What We’re Looking For

  • ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified (or equivalent)
  • Likely 0–3 years PQE
  • Previous exposure within FP&A, commercial finance or industry-based finance rotations
  • Strong analytical capability with an interest in how businesses grow and make decisions
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, evolving environment
  • Bristol-based and happy with a hybrid working model

 

Why This Role?

This is the type of opportunity that can accelerate a career quickly. The remit is intentionally broad, the business is scaling, and finance has genuine influence across the organisation.

Rather than producing reports after the event, you’ll be helping shape decisions as the business continues to evolve.
