As part of our exciting expansion, B&M are creating a brand-new role within our Internal Controls team. We’re looking for a Group Controls Analyst to help strengthen our internal control environment, enhance governance practices, and ensure consistency across our growing Group structure.

Reporting to the Group Controls Manager, you’ll play a key role in designing, implementing, and monitoring effective internal controls across multiple business units. This high-impact role offers visibility across the organisation and the opportunity to shape the future of our risk and controls framework.

You will be responsible for:

• Supporting, implementing and maintaining the Group’s internal controls framework
• Assisting in documenting and reviewing key financial and operational processes to ensure that control design is robust and aligned with risk appetite
• Performing periodic testing of controls, including walkthroughs and sample-based testing, to assess both design and operating effectiveness
• Tracking control deficiencies and support remediation plans in collaboration with control owners
• Helping to prepare internal reports on control performance and emerging risks for management and the audit committee
• Helping to monitor and report on employee expenses, including PSA tracking and compliance
• Contributing to various improvement projects within Group Finance

• The ability to analyse information and challenge constructively, a critical thinker
• A strong work ethic, accountability, and a proactive approach to problem-solving

• Strong organisational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities
• Experience with GRC Tools would be beneficial
• Prior experience in finance, internal/external audit, or a controls-related environment is preferred
