Job Description
Finance Analyst
Full Time/Hybrid
Derby
An exciting opportunity has arisen for you to join us as a Finance Analyst within the Civil Aerospace Services organisation based in Derby.
Why Rolls-Royce?
Rolls-Royce is one of the most enduring and iconic brands in the world and has been at the forefront of innovation for over a century. We design, build and service systems that provide critical power to customers where safety and reliability are paramount.
We are proud to be a force for progress, powering, protecting and connecting people everywhere.
We want to ensure that the excellence and ingenuity that has shaped our history continues into our future and we need people like you to come and join us on this journey.
As a Finance Analyst you will have direct exposure to a specific engine programme. You will be expected to fully understand the P&L and Balance Sheet implications of a suite of long-term TotalCare contracts. These contracts support a substantial financial inflow to the business, and it is critical that we ensure them effectively as they generate significant focus both internally and with our external stakeholders.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a busy influential area of the business which will give you ample opportunities to develop your career.
We'll provide an environment of caring and belonging where you can be yourself. An inclusive, innovative culture that invests in you, gives you access to an incredible breadth and depth of opportunities where you can grow your career and make a difference.
What we offer:
We offer excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.
Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It's a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we're all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.
What you will be doing:
In this interesting role you will deliver the monthly actual financial results and provide the necessary understanding and explanation of the performance variances (to budget and latest forecasts, but also movement to prior years). This enables the business to identify the necessary actions to close performance gaps, generate in-year value and address stakeholder questions. Includes review of balance sheet reconciliations and completion of local balance sheet reviews with relevant stakeholders.
1. Deliver the key financial budgets & forecasts working alongside the engine programme business partners to ensure that the submitted result is understood, approved and represents a realistic view of future business performance to ultimately enhance investor assurance.
2. Be able to articulate changes in long-term contract costing assumptions and the subsequent impact on the underlying financial performance of the business. This enables the programmes to understand core drivers and business levers enabling them to articulate their impact at a programme, region, customer or Civil aerospace level.
3. Deliver improvements to the evaluation, understanding and communication of the net long-term contract balances in both actuals and forecasts to support stakeholder queries.
4. Drive the necessary assurance and integrity of the financial results through effective process control management, including remediation of identified control weaknesses including good process documentation.
5. Dynamically engage in delivery of process improvement by inquiring the status quo, continually contributing to improving our ability to produce accurate, timely and value-add information and evaluation to our stakeholders.
6. Take care of both core external audit and internal reporting requirements throughout the year, demonstrating right-first time delivery.
Who we're looking for:
At Rolls-Royce we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. These principles form the behaviours that guide us and are an essential component of our assessment process. They are the fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles. And for this role, we are looking for someone who is/has:
* Qualified accountant or working towards (CIMA/ACCA/ACA).
* Good analytical skills and a track record of consistently delivering quality results to timelines.
