How our sorting works

The order in which job vacancies are displayed is determined by a composite score based on the following factors:

  • Keyword Relevance: How well your search terms match the vacancy details. We prioritize matches found in the job title, followed by job requirements, location names, and educational levels. Matches within general employer information or the organization's name carry a lower weight.
  • Commercial Prioritization (Premium Jobs): Vacancies paid for by employers ('Premium' or 'Sponsored') receive a ranking boost and will appear higher in the search results.
  • Recency (Date Relevance): Newer vacancies are prioritized. The relevance score of a vacancy is reduced by half once the posting is older than 30 days.
  • Proximity (Distance Relevance): Vacancies located closer to your search location are ranked higher. For vacancies located more than 30 km from the search center, the relevance score is halved.
The final ranking is established by multiplying all these individual factors to calculate the total relevance score.

    Job description

    Our client, a leading international logistics business, is now seeking a Junior Financial Planning & Analysis Analyst to join their growing Finance function—an ideal role for someone early in their finance career who is analytically driven, eager to learn, and ready to grow in a fast-paced, multinational environment.

    Working closely with the Financial Controller, you will support financial reporting, global analysis, FX monitoring, and month-end processes across our UK, USA and India entities. This role offers exceptional exposure, hands-on experience, and the chance to develop into a well-rounded finance professional.

    What You’ll Be Doing

    Your role will include:

    * Financial Analysis & Reporting

    * Support monthly management reporting cycles.

    * Assist in preparing management accounts, including variance analysis and commentary.

    * Conduct cost, overhead and departmental budget analysis to support commercial decision-making.

    * Provide accurate analysis for global reporting across UK, USA and India entities.

    * FX (Foreign Exchange) Analysis

    * Monitor FX movements and assess their impact on business performance.

    * Support hedging analysis and FX forecasting activities.

    * Assist the Financial Controller with FX exposure reporting.

    * General Ledger & Month-End Support

    * Perform accurate nominal and GL postings across multiple entities.

    * Assist with monthly close activities including reconciliations, accruals, prepayments and journal preparation.

    * Help maintain integrity of financial data within the ERP system.

    * Audit & Compliance

    * Prepare schedules, reconciliations and documentation for internal and external audits.

    * Support statutory filing processes across UK, US and India.

    * Maintain strong internal controls across all processes.

    * Cross-Functional Collaboration

    * Work closely with Operations, Commercial, Procurement and International Finance teams.

    * Assist with ad-hoc modelling, forecasting and business case analysis.

    * Contribute to process improvement and system enhancement initiatives.

    What You’ll Bring:

    * Strong analytical mindset with excellent attention to detail.

    * Solid understanding of accounting principles (journals, accruals, reconciliations, variance analysis).

    * Confident Excel user (lookups, pivots, basic modelling).

    * Clear and confident communication skills, able to present findings effectively.

    * Ability to manage deadlines and work across time zones.

    * Proactive, curious and eager to learn.

    Experience & Qualifications

    * Studying towards CIMA / ACCA (desirable, not essential).

    * Prior experience in finance (AP/AR/GL/analysis) preferred—but open to graduates with placement experience.

    * Experience working in a multinational environment is advantageous.
