Summary

Step into this Graduate Financial Analyst role and build something that matters in Financial Services.

Financial services firms across Scotland are under pressure to report faster, forecast smarter and keep pace with regulation that shifts every year. This growing SME needs a Graduate Financial Analyst who can sit inside that pressure and make sense of it. You won't be shuffling paperwork. You'll be producing numbers people actually use.

Here's what you'll be doing:

Building and maintaining financial models to support forecasting and budgeting decisions

Preparing monthly management accounts and variance reports for senior stakeholders

Reconciling accounts and investigating discrepancies before they become problems

Supporting the wider finance team with regulatory reporting and audit preparation

Analysing financial data to spot trends and flag risks early

Assisting with process improvements as the business scales

Here are the skills you'll need:

A degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or a related field

Strong Excel skills. Confidence with formulas, pivot tables and basic modelling

An analytical mind that questions numbers rather than just accepting them

Clear written and verbal communication, since you'll explain figures to non-finance colleagues

Willingness to study towards a professional qualification (ACCA, CIMA or similar)

Organisational discipline. Deadlines in finance don't move

Key perks and benefits:

Salary of £24,500 to £29,000, depending on experience

Private medical insurance and pension contribution

Generous annual leave with flexible working built around office hours

Structured professional development, including support towards accountancy qualifications

Office-based role in Glasgow, working alongside an experienced finance team

Why pursue a career in Financial Services?

Glasgow has quietly become one of the UK's strongest financial services hubs outside London, with established firms and growing SMEs both hiring for talent. A Graduate Financial Analyst role gives you a foundation that opens doors into audit, treasury, investment analysis or corporate finance later on. Few sectors reward accuracy and curiosity as consistently as this one does.

This Graduate Financial Analyst opportunity is brought to you by The Opportunity Hub UK.
