Joules Assistant Finance Analyst - #193544

Job Description

The Role

Step into the role of Ecomm & Marketing Finance Analyst.

Discover an exciting opportunity to take on an integral role here at Joules Head Office working within the Finance team.

At Joules, we believe life is better when you are well dressed for your time off. We are looking for an Ecomm and Marketing Finance Analyst who appreciates the finer details as much as we do. You will be the bridge between our creative world and the bottom line, ensuring our heritage inspired collections reach our customers in a way that is both fresh and profitable. This is not about rigid number crunching. It is about being a knowledgeable peer to our Creation and Marketing teams, helping us grow with confidence and a bit of preppy flair.

Earn while you learn: Following a successful probation period enroll in a Kaplan training contract to gain a professional qualification such as ACCA, CIMA, or ICAEW.

Working Pattern: This is a full time role based at ‘The Barn’ - Joules’ purpose built Head Office in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. The typical hours for this role are 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday and this is an onsite role.

Our Location

Market Harborough in Leicestershire, is where Joules began in 1989. This market town is home to the brand’s Head Office and is full of independent shops, bars and restaurants. It also benefits from good transport links to London, making it easily accessible for visitors and commuters alike.

What You’ll Do

You will be right in the thick of it, partnering with the people who bring our brand to life. Your days will be a mix of strategy and precision, from calculating the value of our digital marketing to keeping a keen eye on the costs of every single photoshoot.

• Partner with Creatives: You will work alongside our Creation and Marketing teams to track performance and keep us on a profitable path.
• Analyse the Magic: You will prepare monthly summaries of our campaign activity, ensuring we understand the cost per shot and the impact of our creative work.
• Digital Insight: You will collaborate with our Digital Marketing Manager to calculate the NPV of our online activity, making sure every digital step we take is a smart one.
• Balance the Books: You will manage forecasts, accruals, and prepayments with ease, ensuring our ledgers are as tidy as a fresh autumn outfit.
• Support the Team: You will produce monthly cost centre reports for our Operating Board and lend a hand to our Retail and Trade analysts whenever they need an extra set of eyes.
  
  

What You’ll Bring

We value a genuine team spirit and a boldly optimistic outlook above all else. You should be someone who loves getting stuff done and is not afraid to share a creative idea or two along the way. We are a brand that layers and plays, so being adaptable is key.

• The Right Mindset: You are fearlessly creative, ready to learn from every challenge, and genuinely excited about where Joules is headed.
• Technical Savvy: You have strong numerical skills and a high attention to detail. Intermediate Excel skills are a must for keeping our data effortless and accurate.
• Professional Progress: You are likely part qualified in ACA, ACCA, or CIMA and have a background in finance where data accuracy was your top priority.
• Effortless Communication: You can manage stakeholders at all levels with a calm and confident approach, even when conversations get a little bit tricky.
• A Passion for the Industry: You have a natural flair for finance and a real interest in the fast moving world of British fashion.
