    Description

    Job Introduction

    This is an exciting opportunity to join Product Group Finance and be a part of the BBC's digital future. The BBC vision is to be the world's first global digital, public service media organisation. The finance team will play a pivotal role in delivering this vision.

    We are seeking a Finance Business Analyst to join our team on a twelve month fixed-term contract.

    The ideal candidate is a talented individual with strong analytical experience who is able to work at a fast pace and demonstrates exceptional interpersonal skills. The individual needs to be adaptable to change and comfortable working in an environment of uncertainty.

    We are a small team so you'll get lots of opportunities to learn new skills and gain relevant experience in a broad range of areas. Experience of using a data visualisation and analytics tool (eg. Power BI, Tableau) and working in a digital environment would be beneficial.

    Finance Business Analysts (FBAs) support the BBC in driving best value from the licence fee within each business area. FBAs will focus on forward-looking, large scale and/or high-impact commercial and investment decisions and support effective financial planning within their area. They will work alongside Finance Business Partners delivering financial and business analysis to help solve key business problems, progress local projects and initiatives and influence business decisions.

    The nature of the team means the role will regularly be dealing with senior stakeholders and cut across different parts of the organisation. There is a strong focus on the development of team members, ensuring people work on a diverse range of projects, gain excellent senior exposure and take advantage of opportunities for both on- and off-the-job development.

    Main Responsibilities

    As a Finance Business Analyst , you will:

  • Own and deliver high quality financial and business analysis with options and recommendations to solve business problems and to influence and challenge business decisions
  • Analyse financial and non-financial data, performance, risks and issues to identify underlying business trends or themes that need to be addressed, sharing external and BBC wide knowledge and good practice
  • Deliver high quality supporting papers, reports, briefing notes (as required) across all work areas, for sharing and discussion with the Finance Business Partner / Finance Director / Senior Management or Divisional and Departmental Boards
  • Promote and deliver improvements through identifying and recommending opportunities for efficiencies and value generation
  • Build and develop strong relationships with key business and finance stakeholders and maintain effective and collaborative working relationships across the Finance community
  • Maintain up to date knowledge and understanding of the different business areas, including their underlying cost drivers and key strategic challenges and opportunities
  • Referencing and championing external and BBC-wide knowledge of best practice in financial analysis, ways of working and commercial performance

    • Are you the right candidate?

    We have a strong track record of developing individuals at all stages of their career – from newly qualified accountants, to those looking to change direction, and those returning to work after a career break. A professional accounting qualification e.g ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent qualification would be preferable.

    Whatever stage your career is at, what's important is that you can demonstrate your experience in most of the following areas:

  • Analytical skills – ability to collate and interpret complex data in Excel, and to translate and simplify this analysis in PowerPoint or a data visualisation tool (eg. Power BI, Tableau) – ultimately driving and influencing decision making
  • Problem solving – identifying key objectives and resolving challenges on a timely basis; communicating next steps to ensure management take informed decisions
  • Task management – scoping of work from the outset, establishing clear timelines and milestones, and prioritising/escalating issues to ensure timely delivery
  • Relationships – building strong relationships and influencing a broad range of stakeholders, including those in executive leadership positions
  • Drive and resilience – team members should be able to manage their own work, run projects independently, and keep stakeholders appraised of progress
  • Development – clarity about your career direction and a desire to progress in the business and take on challenging projects to develop yourself and others
  • Industry knowledge – either experience working in the media sector, or a keen interest and ability to discuss its trends, direction of travel, and relevance to the BBC

    • Please note this is not a technical Business Analyst role.
