About the Company

Join us, be part of more. We're so much more than an energy company. We're a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn't rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That's why working here is MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it. About your team: At Centrica, Group Finance is a core driver of how we deliver our strategy. You'll join a team transforming financial insight, performance management and decision-making across the organisation, bringing together finance professionals, data specialists and technology experts to deliver meaningful outcomes at pace. We're scaling automation, analytics and AI from isolated solutions into enterprise-wide capabilities - improving reporting quality, strengthening financial control, accelerating decision-making, reducing manual effort and creating the digital foundations that underpin everything from energy trading and investment appraisal to business performance and regulatory reporting. If you want to work on complex, high-impact challenges using modern finance, data and technology practices, and help build the capabilities that will shape how Centrica makes decisions over the next
