Group FP&A Analyst
We’re looking for a motivated and data-savvy FP&A Analyst to join our Group FP&A team at ATG Entertainment. This is a hands‑on analytical role, ideal for someone who enjoys working with large and complex datasets, spotting trends, and driving improvements in financial accuracy and insight. The role would suit a recent graduate or early‑career analyst who is ambitious, quick to learn, and energised by the idea of building deep expertise in a fast‑moving business.
You’ll report to the Group FP&A Director and work closely with the Group FP&A Manager, the Group Financial Reporting team, Finance Business Partners across all territories, and other stakeholders, including the Group CFO.
The Group FP&A team aims to be the reporting centre of excellence, satisfying the Group’s internal and external reporting requirements in a timely and insightful manner. Quality and accuracy of information are key to success. The FP&A Analyst plays a vital role in achieving this.
This role is based in our London office at 115‑119 Shaftesbury Avenue, WC2H 8AF (Hybrid: 2 days in office).
Responsibilities
- Act as the FP&A team’s data quality and accuracy engine – owning the end‑to‑end extraction, organisation, and maintenance of financial datasets sourced from Group systems, reporting tools, and business templates.
- Maintain and evolve reporting templates – take ownership of the recurring file set that underpins Group FP&A output, including monthly Management Accounts inputs, budget and forecast templates, and territory consolidation files.
- Perform structured data validation – cross‑check data pulled from multiple sources (Cognos TM1, Excel, system reports) for completeness, consistency, and accuracy; flag discrepancies early and close the loop.
- Respond to ad‑hoc analytical requests – support the FP&A Manager and Director with time‑sensitive data pulls and one‑off builds, operating with urgency and a bias toward getting things done cleanly the first time.
- Identify and flag process friction – when you spot a manual workaround, a clunky process, or a recurring data headache, say so and bring a solution alongside the problem where possible.
Essential
- Intellectual curiosity
- Advanced Excel skills (formulas, pivot tables, data manipulation) with a meticulous eye for data accuracy.
- Ability to work with large, complex datasets and maintain data accuracy.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills with a proactive approach to problem‑solving.
Desirable
- Strong intellect with numerical and analytical skills, combined with exceptional attention to detail.
- Highly organised, process driven and delivery focused.
- Expectation to take full ownership and accountability for areas of responsibility.
- Experience with Cognos TM1 systems would be advantageous.
What Success Looks Like
- Weekly and monthly reports delivered on time and error‑free.
- Visible improvement in data quality and reliability.
- Stakeholders trust and act on your analysis and commentary.
- You proactively suggest and implement reporting efficiencies.
