Finance Analyst - hybrid

Blue Light Card. Individually great, together unstoppable

The Role and the Team

FP&A at Blue Light Card is in a genuinely exciting moment. We're building out our analyst capability for the first time, hiring three brand new Finance Analyst roles across our Commercial, Growth, and Cost & Planning teams as we scale our analytical depth to match BLC's continued growth. These aren't roles where you'll be picking up someone else's work, they're an opportunity to introduce new insights, build reporting from the ground up, and make a genuine mark on how BLC understands and drives its performance.

This Finance Analyst role sits within the Commercial team, partnering closely with our Partnerships and RevOps teams to bring greater clarity and rigour to our commercial revenue streams. With affiliate reporting moving to our data warehouse and increasing complexity across partner channels, there's real work to do here, and real impact to make.

You'll own the insight behind some of BLC's most commercially significant revenue lines. From building clearer pictures of partner performance to forecasting against specific revenue streams like cinema, you'll work with a wide range of data points and bring structure, narrative, and recommendations to the teams who need it.

What You'll Do

Support budgeting and forecasting across commercial revenue, combining financial plans with operational performance data to produce accurate, decision-ready forecasts in partnership with senior stakeholders

Own regular performance reporting across commercial revenue streams, defining KPIs, automating recurring packs where possible, and creating clear narratives on what's changed and why

Perform variance and driver analysis using system data (including partner activity, trading performance, and revenue by channel) to identify root causes and recommend actions

Deliver revenue and margin deep-dives by segment, channel, and product, translating trends into commercial recommendations that influence priorities

Partner with Partnerships, RevOps, and Data teams to provide timely, impactful insight, supporting higher-quality commercial reporting and decision-making

Contribute to improving data quality and metric consistency across commercial reporting, aligning definitions and documenting assumptions so outputs are trusted across the business

Support the long-term forecast model, including scenario and sensitivity analysis to inform executive decision-making

Help track the ROI on commercial investment decisions and the impact of partner activity on growth and profitability

What You'll Bring

Proven experience in financial analysis with a solid understanding of forecasting, budgeting, and reforecasting in a fast-moving commercial environment

Strong analytical capability, with experience turning complex datasets into clear, actionable insight and confident recommendations for non-finance stakeholders

Systems and BI literacy, with comfort working across multiple data sources and tools; familiarity with SQL is particularly valuable in this role

Advanced Excel skills, including modelling, Power Query, and macros

A strong data hygiene mindset, with attention to definitions, reconciliations, and documentation to ensure outputs are accurate and trusted

Strong business partnering and communication skills, with the ability to build trusted relationships with stakeholders outside of finance and present insight with clarity and confidence

Part-qualified or working towards a recognised accountancy qualification (CIMA, ACCA, or equivalent) would be a bonus, but is not essential

Experience in a D2C, marketplace, or ecommerce environment would be a bonus, but is not essential
