Financial Modeller

If you think you are the right match for the following opportunity, apply after reading the complete description. We’re BDO, an accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions businesses need to navigate today’s changing world.

Our clients are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high growth businesses that fuel the economy - and the owners and management teams that lead them.

Our Advisory team provides a wide variety of services that deliver value-led advice and outcomes. They have an in-depth knowledge of business, industry sectors and markets and understand the constantly changing risks and opportunities at the heart of our clients’ affairs. The team works across strategy, operations and improvement as well as at a transactional and defined project level. From technology to risk advisory, they’re experts in following through on top-level instructions and resolving the finer details – all in one straightforward package. When you join them, you’ll work on some of the world’s most exciting financial operations and business deals, building your experience and expertise alongside the brightest minds in the industry.

Our clients trust us because of the quality of our advice. That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with clients and building long-lasting relationships. You’ll be someone who can work proactively, managing your own tasks, but you’ll also be confident collaborating with others, communicating regularly with senior managers, Directors, and BDO’s Partners to enable us to serve our clients effectively. You’ll be encouraged to identify and draw attention to opportunities for enhancing our delivery and providing additional services to our clients.

This challenging position sits within BDO’s market-leading Financial Modelling & Assurance Services team, providing a range of financial model related services to a large portfolio of global blue-chip corporates, banks, financial institutions and funds in relation to major infrastructure, energy and utility projects, often working with the assistance of our global network. These parties are involved in the design, build, finance and operation of multi-million and, in some cases, multi-billion pound projects, either in the private sector or under government procurement frameworks.

The diverse range of projects we support range from: petrochemical plants, LNG trains, water de-salination plants, and IWPP projects in the Middle East; to wind and rail projects across the UK and Europe; to government sponsored transport projects in the Benelux region; to digital infrastructure and waste to energy projects across the UK.

You’ll be someone with:

• A finance related qualification, preferably ACA/ACCA or equivalent
• A track record of developing complex financial models to clients on a timely basis over the whole engagement lifecycle that are in line with the agreed specifications
• Good experience and a track record of leading/managing model build assignments
• Although not essential, some prior experience of model assurance and review assignments would be helpful
• Good project management skills and a desire to take ownership of the work product

You’ll be able to be yourself; we’ll recognise and value you for who you are and celebrate and reward your contributions to the business. We’re committed to agile working, and we offer everyone the opportunity to work in ways that suit them, their teams, and the task in hand. At BDO, we’ll help you achieve your personal goals and career ambitions, and we have programmes, resources, and frameworks that provide clarity and structure around career development.

Mutual support and respect is one of BDO’s core values and we’re proud of our distinctive, people-centred culture. From informal success conversations to formal mentoring and coaching, we’ll support you at every stage in your career, whatever your personal and professional needs. We can provide the best support for our clients and people when we’re working side by side. Our agile working framework helps us stay connected, bringing teams together where and when it counts so they can share ideas and help one another. At BDO, you’ll always have access to the people and resources you need to do your best work. We know that collaboration is the key to creating value for our clients and satisfying experiences at work, so we’ve invested in state-of-the-art collaboration spaces in our offices. BDO’s people represent a wealth of knowledge and expertise, and we’ll encourage you to build your network, work alongside others, and share your skills and experiences. With a range of multidisciplinary events and dedicated resources, you’ll never stop learning at BDO.
