Position description

POSTING CLOSE DATE: July 7, 2026 

BCI is looking for a Senior Analyst or Associate (the level with be determined based on your experience) to join BCI’s Corporate Financial Planning & Analysis team which sits at the intersection of finance and strategy — supporting 13 internal departments through annual budgeting, forecasting, monthly reporting and the kind of bespoke analysis that helps senior leaders make confident decisions.

With three major annual cycles and a mandate to bring fresh thinking to every client relationship, you’ll spend as much time building trust with stakeholders as you will digging through data.

The ideal candidate will be able to translate complex datasets into compelling stories — someone who builds relationships proactively, thrives in ambiguity, and genuinely enjoys being the trusted financial voice in the room. Whether you’re coming from a Big Four firm, a pension fund, or an asset manager, if you’re curious, client-oriented, and ready to work with some of the most interesting corporate data in institutional finance, this role is worth your attention.
