•       Build and maintain analytical models and reconciliation tools to support financial modelling, scenario analysis, and due diligence workstreams.

•       Ensure data consistency, auditability, and version control across all transaction-related outputs, acting as a quality gate for buyer-facing materials.

•       Collaborate with the wider analytics function to cross-reference outputs and maintain alignment with BAU reporting, minimising the risk of inconsistencies across the business.

•       Has financial modelling and/or accounting experience, and is confident structuring, interrogating, and reconciling financial data (essential)

•       Has experience working with BI and visualisation tools such as ThoughtSpot, Tableau, or PowerBI (essential)

•       Has hands-on experience with Salesforce, including extracting, manipulating, and reconciling CRM data (essential)

•       Has at least intermediate SQL knowledge, comfortable writing queries to pull and transform data independently (essential)
