Advanced Excel skills.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate finance speak into plain English for managers and colleagues from non-financial backgrounds
Experience producing management accounts, budgets and forecasts
Strong attention to detail combined with the ability to see the bigger picture
A collaborative approach and the confidence to challenge constructively when needed
