Burgess Hill, West Sussex, United Kingdom AMEX Full time

You Shape the Future. We Support Your Journey.

With the right support, individuals and organizations can achieve remarkable progress. At American Express, you become part of a diverse global community dedicated to empowering our clients, communities, and each other. Here, you will have the opportunity to learn and develop as we assist you in crafting a career path that is both unique and fulfilling, with benefits and programs that cater to your personal and professional needs.

At American Express, your contributions, leadership, and impact will be acknowledged; every team member has the chance to partake in the company’s achievements. Together, we will succeed as a cohesive unit, committed to our promise of delivering the finest customer experience globally, every single day. We will achieve this with the highest level of integrity, in an environment where everyone feels valued and included.

As a Financial Analyst on the UK Controllership team, you will report directly to the Manager of UK Controllership and will be accountable for group, statutory, and regulatory reporting, as well as ensuring the financial integrity and governance of UK legal entities. You will collaborate closely with various departments, including Audit & Finance Committee, Company Secretary, Tax, Treasury, Compliance, Global Finance Operations, Operational Excellence, General Counsel, and the Business to support diverse legal entity initiatives.

What impact will you have in this position?

  • Ensuring the accuracy of the UK ledgers, supervising the US GAAP month-end close, and confirming that entries made by Finance and non-Finance teams comply with relevant US GAAP and internal policies.
  • Compiling month-end reports based on legal entity Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet.
  • Serving as the primary contact for all inquiries related to legal entities.
  • Assisting in the preparation of annual financial statements under IFRS (FRS 101) and facilitating the external audit process in collaboration with the Legal Entity Reporting (LER) team.
  • Contributing to regular financial updates and results analysis for legal entity boards and operating committees.
  • Keeping abreast of all Regulatory and Statutory Reporting requirements (including FRS101/IFRS and the Companies Act).
  • Collaborating closely with relevant Line of Business Segment Controllership teams to ensure that business transactions are supported in a coordinated manner, sharing knowledge and utilizing resources efficiently.
  • Preparing and routinely updating forecasts for legal entities.
  • Completing filings with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Office of National Statistics (ONS).
  • Monitoring intercompany transactions and ensuring that appropriate service fees are established to facilitate accurate transfer pricing between legal entities.
  • Actively seeking opportunities for process enhancements across all areas of responsibility, through the implementation of new systems and Oracle tools, eliminating non-value-added tasks, and streamlining functional procedures.

You will be tasked with maintaining legal entity governance while accounting entries and processes are executed by various teams, many of which focus on line of business outcomes. Effective coordination with cross-functional teams and influencing business partners and stakeholders on legal entity and accounting requirements will be essential. You will also support the assessment and communication of IFRS implications when primary ledgers are maintained under US GAAP, as well as understanding and implementing local regulatory or policy-driven changes to deliver high-quality and precise financial information within critical deadlines.

Demonstrating personal accountability will be crucial to ensure that all tasks and activities are completed within the required timelines, addressing issues, and making decisions independently while applying sound judgment to determine when escalation is necessary.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Qualified accountant, preferably with practice or audit experience.
  • Background in accounting, reporting, and statutory audit.
  • Familiarity with IFRS reporting requirements (knowledge of US GAAP and UK Companies Act is also advantageous).
  • Proficiency in MS-Office applications and experience with Oracle.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to manage your own workload and work independently.
  • Experience in a large corporate or global matrix environment.
  • Results-oriented - capable of handling multiple tasks, adhering to strict deadlines, and prioritizing effectively.

We support our colleagues and their families with benefits and programs that promote their overall well-being. This includes prioritizing their physical, financial, and mental health throughout all life stages. Benefits encompass:

  • Competitive base salaries.
  • Bonus incentives.
  • Support for financial well-being and retirement.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and disability benefits (subject to location).
  • Flexible working arrangements, including hybrid, onsite, or virtual options based on role and business needs.
  • Generous paid parental leave policies (dependent on location).
  • Free access to global on-site wellness centers staffed with healthcare professionals (dependent on location).
  • Confidential counseling support through our Healthy Minds program.
  • Opportunities for career development and training.

Employment with American Express is contingent upon the successful completion of a background verification check, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
