• Preparation of weekly Profit & Loss production, reconciliations, explain market-based commentary, sign offs, issue resolution and partner concern.
• Supporting the month end close processes associated with accurately reporting and independently validating the bank's balance sheet in a timely manner.

What you'll need

• Qualified accountant or in the latter stages of qualification.
• Finance professional with a proven track record gained in a range of roles and/or proven depth of knowledge within their specialism.
• Understanding of relevant business systems, along with practical understanding of financial systems and processes

• Able to work in a fast paced & changing environment, whilst supporting the delivery of solutions to urgent ad hoc queries and requests from partners.

About working for us

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, and build an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative.

And it's why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups.

We're disability confident. So if you'd like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:
