Description

A finance role? Or a true business partner role? At Nando’s, it’s never just about the numbers. It’s about the story behind them. The decisions they unlock. The impact they drive. This isn’t your typical back-office analyst gig. You’ll sit right at the heart of the business - partnering with Commercial, Marketing and Leadership teams to shape strategy, influence decisions, and help our restaurants win. And the best part? While this role is fully self-sufficient, there’s a clear pathway to step into a Finance Manager role as you grow your impact.

From new product launches (NPD) to existing product improvements (EPD), to campaign reviews and promotional planning, you’ll be right in the mix - modelling, analysing and guiding what success looks like.
