Commercial Finance & Analytics Manager, PE backed Real Estate, c£75k + Bonus

We are partnering with a rapidly scaling European real estate and operations business that is enhancing a traditionally fragmented sector through technology, data and operational excellence.

The business currently manages over 5,000 assets across the UK and is embarking on an ambitious growth journey to scale to more than 25,000 assets across Europe over the coming years. Backed by a highly entrepreneurial leadership team, they are investing heavily in systems, data infrastructure and commercial decision-making to support this next phase of growth.

Following the recent appointment of a new CFO, the business is embarking on a significant finance and technology investment. This role will sit at the heart of that journey, helping build a modern, data-driven finance function capable of supporting a much larger and more complex organisation.

This is a rare opportunity to join a business at an inflection point and play a key role in shaping how finance, data and technology interact across the organisation.

Reporting directly to the CFO, you will combine commercial finance, business intelligence and process improvement responsibilities.

You will help redesign core processes, improve reporting infrastructure, leverage modern AI-enabled tools and build scalable data solutions that drive better decision-making across the business.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Partnering with the CFO to professionalise and modernise finance operations
  • Building commercial reporting and analytical frameworks across multiple operating entities
  • Identifying trends, risks and opportunities within financial and operational data
  • Producing actionable insights that influence business strategy and performance
  • Supporting the redesign of core business processes and workflows
  • Improving data quality, governance and reporting accuracy
  • Working with APIs, data integrations and reporting tools to automate manual processes
  • Developing scalable management information and KPI reporting
  • Analysing customer journeys and operational performance to identify commercial improvements
  • Supporting technology implementation projects and wider digital enhancement initiatives
  • Leveraging AI and automation tools to improve efficiency and insight generation
  • Creating compelling narratives around business performance for senior stakeholders

We are looking for an intellectually curious and commercially minded individual who enjoys solving complex business problems through a combination of finance, data and technology.

You will likely bring:

  • Strong FP&A, commercial finance or business intelligence experience
  • Advanced analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • Experience working with large datasets and reporting tools
  • Strong understanding of data structures, databases and reporting architecture
  • Exposure to APIs, automation tools or modern data platforms
  • Ability to translate complex data into commercial recommendations
  • Experience operating within a high-growth, entrepreneurial environment
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
  • A hands-on mentality with the ability to work autonomously

Why Join?

  • Significant exposure to an experienced CFO
  • Opportunity to help build a best-in-class finance and data function
  • High-growth, entrepreneurial environment
  • Broad remit spanning finance, technology and operations
  • Genuine opportunity to influence business strategy
  • Fast-track career progression as the organisation scales across Europe

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise data science jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that actually reach senior and lead data science talent. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK data science hiring over the next three years — from MLE crossover to GenAI workflows. Data science has spent the past decade being described as the sexiest job of the twenty-first century. By 2026, the reality is both more nuanced and more interesting than that label ever suggested. The discipline has matured, fragmented, deepened, and in some respects reinvented itself — and the jobs market has changed with it in ways that create genuine opportunity for those who understand what employers actually want, and genuine difficulty for those still operating on assumptions formed five years ago. The data science jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. The generalist data scientist — equally comfortable wrangling data, building models, and presenting insights to the board — is giving way to a more specialised landscape where employers know exactly what problem they are trying to solve and are looking for candidates with the specific depth to solve it. Machine learning engineering, causal inference, experimentation, AI product development, and domain-specific applied science have all emerged as distinct career tracks within what was previously a single, loosely defined profession. At the same time, the arrival of large language models and the broader AI capability wave has both threatened and created data science roles in equal measure. Some of the work that junior data scientists spent their early careers doing — data cleaning, exploratory analysis, basic model building — is being partially automated by AI tooling. But the demand for practitioners who can evaluate AI systems rigorously, apply statistical thinking to complex business problems, and build the data foundations on which AI depends has grown considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what data scientists are expected to build and know, and how to position a data science career that will remain valuable as the field continues to evolve around them. This article breaks down what the UK data science jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
