We are looking for a Digital Finance Analyst to join our team in London on a 12-month fixed‑term contract. Drive the transformation of the finance and actuarial function by identifying, designing and delivering solutions that automate manual work, improve data quality and enhance existing tools.

This role sits alongside Fusion, an ambitious project to change the ERP system. Depending on where the need is greatest, you may contribute directly to Fusion delivery, provide cover so others can focus on it, or carry the function's wider transformation and automation work through the project. Flexibility to move between these as priorities shift is part of the role.
