About the Opportunity

Scan Computers International Ltd is a leading UK-based technology distribution and solutions business, supporting a diverse portfolio of customers, vendors, and business units across the technology sector.

We are seeking a commercially minded and qualified finance professional with 4+ years of relevant post-qualification or commercial finance experience to join our India team as an FP&A; Analyst – Commercial Finance. This role will support management reporting, commercial performance, and strategic decision-making across Finance, Operations, Commercial, Purchasing, Marketing, Cloud, and 3XS business units.

Role Purpose

The FP&A; Analyst – Commercial Finance will be responsible for the production, interpretation, and continuous improvement of management information across the business, enabling timely and data-driven decision-making by the Executive Team.

Acting as a strategic bridge between Finance, Business Intelligence, Operations, and Commercial functions, the role will ensure accurate reporting, strong financial control, and actionable commercial insight. This is not a traditional compliance-focused Financial Controller position; it is a highly commercial role focused on business performance, decision support, and continuous improvement.

3. Systems, Automation & Continuous Improvement

4. Financial Control

- Support core financial planning activities, including budgeting, forecasting, month-end close, stock reviews, and balance sheet reviews.
- Maintain the absolute integrity and reliability of management information used for executive decision-making.
