We are looking for a Finance Reporting Analyst to join us on a c.12 month basis as a maternity cover, ideally starting in August / September 2025 to allow for a smooth handover.
We need someone who can delve into our Aderant (a practice management system) database and data warehouse to produce insightful timely, accurate reports that enable our lawyers and managers to make sound business decisions.
We are looking for someone who can bring our data to life - not just through their SQL skills but by bringing their SSRS and PowerBI skills to create impactful visualized reports. You will also act as a data champion - someone who promotes and enables us to record data accurately and effectively.
Based in a small team, you will have exposure to a wide variety of tasks - reporting on client and matter activity, profitability, month-end activities, budgeting and more. You'll often be creating specific bespoke reports on all sorts of financial activity.
As a law firm, embracing innovation is part of who we are. In this role you will be assisting on plenty of projects for business improvement and encouraged to bring your ideas on new opportunities to improve our reporting processes and data management.
About you
To succeed you will need a commercial and enquiring mindset. Naturally you will have extremely high levels of
attention to detail,
but you'll also be able to see the bigger picture to allow you to understand the needs of your client base and so produce insightful reports for them. We want to use data effectively, not drown in it.
We expect you will have experience working in a similar role in a law firm or other professional services firm but if not, your application will show that you are a data wizard with
strong SQL
and
SSMS knowledge
with significant
financial reporting
experience.
Our Culture
Our culture is unique among law firms - both in what we expect from our people and the way we create value in the industries we serve. We empower our people, expect commitment and excellence, and celebrate when we achieve it.
Our Cheltenham office is conveniently situated close to the town centre and a reasonable distance from the train station. We have bright, modern spacious offices with an on-site subsidised cafe and parking. Through the year we arrange plenty of social events.
Our values are at the heart of everything that we do and define Wiggin as a workplace: being visionary, authentic, unified, responsible, and excellent across-the-board.
There isn't a typical Wiggin person. We aim to build teams that are diverse in thought, perspective, and experience to provide a more rounded service to our internal and external clients.
