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.

What You'll Do

You will be right in the thick of it, partnering with the people who bring our brand to live. 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.

  • 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.
