This brand new opportunity for a well-established brand at their site in Worksop offers an exciting mix of ownership and development in stock valuation, sales reporting, and gross margin analysis. It's a role that's designed to grow with you, offering potential for greater responsibilities over time as you work closely with the Financial Controller and the rest of the finance team.

Key Responsibilities:
As a Finance Analyst, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the business operates efficiently and profitably by delivering accurate financial insights and supporting key decision-making processes. The focus of this role is around sales, stock valuations and gross margin performance.
