1Question

Tell me about a time you had to explain complex financial information to non-financial managers

During a quarterly review, I needed to explain a £47k variance in our facilities management contract to 3 operational managers who were concerned about budget overruns. I created a simple visual breakdown showing that £32k was due to additional winter maintenance not budgeted for, and £15k from currency fluctuations on imported materials. I used charts to show the trend over 6 months and provided actionable recommendations including a 12% contingency buffer for next year's budget. The managers understood immediately and approved the revised forecasting approach, which reduced similar variances by 68% in subsequent quarters.
2Question

Describe a situation where you identified and implemented a process improvement

I noticed our monthly balance sheet reconciliation was taking 4 days and often contained errors in accruals matching. I analysed the process and discovered we were manually cross-referencing 200+ invoices against purchase orders using printed reports. I developed an Excel macro that automated the matching process and highlighted exceptions for manual review. This reduced reconciliation time to 1.5 days and improved accuracy from 94% to 99.2%. The finance director adopted this approach across all 8 regional offices, saving approximately 156 hours monthly across the team.
