About this position

We’re helping an international finance and M&A consultancy find a Financial Analyst to support transaction advisory, fundraising, and strategic finance projects for high-growth startups and scaleups.

You’ll build sophisticated financial models, prepare investor and board materials, and support valuation and deal execution across software and deeptech companies. This is a hands-on, high-accountability role where flawless work is non-negotiable — your analyses will directly inform key decisions and client strategies.

This role is ideal for someone who is a wizard with numbers, detail-obsessed yet commercially minded, and capable of seeing both the story and strategy behind the spreadsheets.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Modelling (Forecast & Scenario Analysis)
Build fully linked 3-statement financial models with sensitivities and scenarios (base, downside, management).
Create cash flow forecasts, liquidity bridges, and valuation-ready modules (DCF, comps, transaction comps).
Historical Restatement & Data Hygiene
Reconcile and clean raw data (GL exports, bank data, SaaS metrics) into analysis-ready formats.
Maintain version control, audit trails, and traceability from trial balance to model.
Reporting Templates & Automation
Design board and investor reporting templates, KPI dashboards, and variance analysis frameworks.
Build SaaS metrics (ARR/MRR bridges, churn, LTV/CAC, NRR) and recurring revenue templates.
Transaction Support (Model-Led)
Produce deal-ready schedules for buy-side and sell-side engagements (QofE, NWC, closing adjustments).
Translate model outputs into charts and visuals for investment memorandums and management presentations.
Quality Assurance & Standards
Follow strict QA processes (FAST/SMART methodology).
Double-check every formula, input, and output — your work must be flawless.
Ensure transparency through consistent assumptions pages, error checks, and version logs.

Advanced Excel/Google Sheets proficiency (array formulas, Power Query, dynamic formulas, structured refs).
Excellent grasp of valuation and deal mechanics (NWC, closing adjustments, leakage, earn-outs).
Ability to turn messy data into clear historicals and models — quickly and accurately.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills — able to explain the story behind the numbers.
Meticulous attention to detail and ability to self-check work before submission.
