Graduate Finance Analyst. Birmingham City Centre. £26,000- £30,000+ study support. Hybrid working.

Your new company

This role sits within a well‑established UK business that forms part of a large international group operating across multiple markets. The organisation is known for its strong financial controls, investment in systems and people, and a genuine commitment to developing early‑career talent.

With an upcoming systems transformation project, the finance team offers an excellent environment for a graduate to gain hands‑on experience and broad exposure across multiple areas of finance.

Your new role

This is an ideal role for a recent graduate in Accounting, Finance, or a related degree who is eager to kick‑start their career within a supportive and structured finance team.

The role is learn‑on‑the‑job, offering exposure to management accounting, FP&A, and some transactional finance, while more senior team members focus on an upcoming SAP project. Over time, you will have the opportunity to move around different areas of finance, building a strong foundation for long‑term progression.

Full professional study support (ACCA/CIMA) is provided.

Day‑to‑day responsibilities will evolve as you develop, but initially will include:

  • Supporting the preparation of management accounts
  • Assisting with month‑end processes, including journals and reconciliations
  • Producing basic financial reports for internal stakeholders
  • Supporting parts of transactional finance (AP/AR) to keep day‑to‑day operations running smoothly
  • Maintaining accurate financial records and controls
  • Assisting with data and reporting during the SAP implementation project
  • Working with different members of the finance team to gain broad exposure
  • Ad‑hoc tasks and analysis to support the wider finance function

What you'll need to succeed

  • A recent graduate in Accounting, Finance, Economics, or a related discipline
  • Ambitious, curious, and keen to learn
  • Interested in building a long‑term career in finance
  • Comfortable working with numbers and data
  • Organised, reliable, and willing to get stuck in
  • Looking to study towards a professional qualification alongside work
No prior finance experience is required, but any internships, placements, or part-time finance exposure would be beneficial.

What you'll get in return

  • Salary £26,000 – £30,000 (dependent on experience)
  • Full ACCA / CIMA study support
  • Hybrid working (3 days office / 2 days home)
  • 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
  • Free on-site parking
  • Exposure to management accounting, FP&A, systems, and transactional finance
  • Clear development pathway within a structured finance team
This is an excellent opportunity for a graduate who wants more than just a transactional role, and instead is looking for hands-on exposure, learning, and progression within finance.
