Are you an ambitious early-career finance professional looking to fast-track your experience in systems, group reporting, and transformation projects?
CP Holdings are looking for a Financial Analyst to join their Group Finance team on an 18-month fixed-term contract, playing a key role in an exciting finance transformation programme. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to a major system implementation while developing strong technical and commercial finance skills.
The opportunity
You’ll be part of Project Darwin, supporting the rollout of OneStream, a leading consolidation and financial planning tool used across the group. Working closely with finance stakeholders, project teams, and implementation partners, you’ll gain real-world experience that goes far beyond a traditional analyst role.
This role is ideal for someone studying towards a professional accounting qualification (CIMA, ACA, or ACCA) or with a finance-related degree who wants to build a strong foundation in group finance and systems.
What you’ll be doing
  * Supporting the delivery of a group-wide OneStream implementation
  * Assisting with system build activities, workshops, and documentation
  * Preparing and executing User Acceptance Testing (UAT), including reconciliations and issue logging
  * Performing detailed data checks between legacy systems and OneStream
  * Supporting finance users during testing and early adoption
  * Helping maintain system master data, hierarchies, and mappings
  * Responding to day-to-day system queries and supporting training sessions
  * Contributing to ad-hoc finance analysis and reporting tasks
What CP Holdings are looking for
Essential:
  * Studying towards a professional accounting qualification or holding a finance/accounting degree
  * Strong Excel skills and confidence working with financial data
  * Solid understanding of financial statements (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow)
  * High attention to detail and a structured, methodical approach
  * A proactive mindset with a genuine desire to learn
Desirable:
  * Exposure to financial systems, consolidation tools, or reporting platforms
  * Experience in a finance, accounting, or analytical role (including internships or placements)
  * Awareness of month-end processes or finance transformation projects
Why join?
  * Hands-on experience with a major finance systems implementation
  * Exposure to group and multi-entity finance environments
  * Supportive team culture with strong learning and development opportunities
  * A role that builds highly marketable finance and systems skills
  * Hybrid working with a Watford head office base
If you’re curious, analytical, and keen to build a strong career in finance systems and group reporting, CP Holdings Ltd would love to hear from you.
