    Confident and concise when presenting financial information to senior management.
    Experience of working a with general ledger systems.
    Experience in running a financial month end close.
    Good knowledge of Microsoft Excel.
    Broad experience within a finance function.
    Strong understanding of accounting and insurance principles and practices.
    Experience of problem solving and reconciliations.

    Yes, we offer all the usual rewards and benefits - including great healthcare provision, a wide variety of wellbeing offers, competitive salary, generous pensions and more - but we know you expect all that.

    What you might not expect is a job where everyone has a voice, where volunteering in the community is part of the day job, and where everyone is encouraged to play a part towards our sustainability goals.

    We want people who want to make a difference - not just in the workplace, but in the industry and in the wider community.

    Diversity & Inclusion

    At DUAL we consider our people our chief competitive advantage and as such we treat colleagues, candidates, clients, and business partners with equality, fairness and respect, regardless of their age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation, marital status or family circumstances.

    We've travelled far since opening our first office in 1994. Back then we were local experts - based in London, with direct access to the world's biggest insurance market. We're still locals, and we still deliver the right advice and the right insurance to our clients. But now, we're local all over the world.

    With 15,000 global colleagues and a partner network spanning more than 100 territories, we are the largest independent insurance broker in the world.

    It's created a culture of collaboration and innovation, where we're driven to think bigger and empowered to challenge convention.

    Our flat structure and entrepreneurial spirit help us attract the best people and empower them to be the best version of themselves.
