With a diverse portfolio of specialist products, the company offers a dynamic and fast-paced environment with excellent exposure across finance and underwriting.
Your new role
As a Financial Planning & Reporting Analyst, you will support senior finance leadership in delivering high-quality financial analysis, reporting, and planning across the business.

You will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or equivalent) with prior experience in the insurance or reinsurance sector, either in practice or industry. Strong technical accounting knowledge, excellent Excel skills, and the ability to communicate financial insights clearly are essential. You will be highly analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a team.
What you'll get in return
You will receive a competitive salary of £65,000-£70,000 depending on experience, alongside an excellent benefits package including bonus potential, private medical cover, pension, and study support.
