About the Role

In this role you will be supporting the UK&I Uber team which sits within the EMEA megaregion. You will be in a unique position with access to the overall business allowing you to reach insights others might not have access to.

What You'll Do

• Financial planning and analysis : work closely with the finance organisation and with regional business leaders to develop financial forecasts and operational goals, apply business judgment and financial insights to help with decision making;
• Sophisticated financial modeling : build models from scratch, improve existing models, and break sophisticated models down into components that consolidate;
• Think strategically and implement: the models we build aid in decision making and strategy - we operationalise our insights and support everyday execution;
• Monthly close : analyse variances between actuals, forecast, and plan - use insights to iterate on forecasts and build/discuss potential action plans with cross-functional customers;
• Operational improvement : help improve our planning processes and ensure finance standard methodologies spread through the organisation. Collaborate with Accounting to provide input on management reporting needs and better understand our actuals;
• Business optimisation : support initiatives that optimise our global P&L. Partner with the Senior Finance Management to provide financial insights and assess the company's overall progress towards its strategic objectives;

What You'll Need

• BS/BA in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Engineering, or similar;
• 3+ years in Banking, Corporate finance or operational FP&A role at either a high-growth company or a large, well-established organisation;
• Elite Excel/Google Sheet skills: Standard methodologies are second-nature, your models are efficient, scalable and intuitive;
• Excellent communication and people skills: numbers are key, but a business is built with people;
• Self-starter: take initiative, be dedicated, set and drive toward goals;
• Systems: proven understanding of enterprise-level financial planning systems;
• Attention to detail: consistent with swift and high quality execution. We do things quickly, and we need to do them well. Striking that balance can be daring and this should be a strength of yours.
