Remote Junior EMEA Junior Analyst CFO hypothesis Close

Requirements

• These are explicit. We will hire against them. • Structured problem solving. Hypothesis-driven. You can take an unfamiliar operation apart, find the critical question, write a kill criterion, and give a clear recommendation without hiding behind a framework. • Analytical speed and numeracy. Comfortable with messy data and incomplete information. You build analyses that are concise, correct and decision-ready under time pressure. • Written and slide craft. Your decks and memos are tight. First page says the answer. Evidence follows. A partner or Transformation Strategist can use your output with light edit, not a rewrite. • Insight generation. You do not stop at describing the process. You find where value is lost and what to change first. • Fungibility. You can be dropped onto a new account or a new problem type and produce within days, not weeks. • Delivery bias. You stay after the framing is done. You follow actions through. You notice what is not working and help fix it. • Customer judgment at working level. You listen well, ask a direct question and communicate clearly with operators and managers. You know when to escalate. • AI-native personal workflow. You use AI seriously to accelerate research, analysis and drafting, and you remain responsible for the quality of what goes in front of a customer. • Early-stage working style. You move without perfect instructions, write in plain English and surface bad news early.

Responsibilities

• 1. GET TO THE INSIGHT • Dive into how work actually happens: interviews, extracts, handoffs, exceptions and the workarounds people use to keep things running. • Build a fact base that shows where cost, cash, service, cycle time or control is being lost. • Form a hypothesis early, name what would kill it, and pressure-test it with the Transformation Strategist before you polish anything. • Structure unfamiliar problems without waiting for a perfect brief. Frame the selection equation (what matters, what does not) so the team and the customer can decide. • 2. DELIVER OUTPUT THAT MOVES A DECISION • Turn analysis into decision-ready slides, one-pagers and memos that make the important choice obvious. • Be exact about baselines, assumptions and evidence. Do not use polish to hide uncertainty. • Work fast: same-day or next-day turnarounds on defined asks are the norm, not the exception. • Produce materials a Transformation Strategist can take into a working session or steerco with minimal rewrite. • 3. BE FUNGIBLE SURGE CAPACITY ON BIG ACCOUNTS • Plug into multiple live enterprise accounts as extra hands where the Transformation Strategist needs analytical depth. • Jump between problem types without needing a long ramp each time. • Keep a clean trail of actions, open questions and evidence so work can be handed between you, the Transformation Strategist and the FDE without loss. • Surface blockers early; do not sit on ambiguity hoping it resolves. • 4. BUILD THE EVIDENCE FOR IMPACT • Help lock baseline, target and measurement window before implementation. • Quantify results in language a CFO would trust (revenue, margin, cost, working capital, cycle time, control), not activity counts or sentiment. • Investigate misses as carefully as wins, and turn both into clear evidence packs the Transformation Strategist can use upstairs. • 5. STAY CLOSE TO THE CUSTOMER TEAM (WORKING LEVEL) • Own relationships with operators and mid-level owners who live the process day to day. • Prepare working sessions, capture decisions and follow commitments through. • Know when a question needs a senior call and escalate early rather than bluffing. • You will not own commercial negotiations, board-level relationships or technical build. You will own the craft and pace of the insight work that makes those outcomes possible.

Benefits

• Your insight work lands in live enterprise operations with a contracted 5x ROI, not in a forgotten sharepoint. • You sit beside Transformation Strategists and FDEs on real accounts, so you see recommendation through to adoption. • You get concentrated ownership of analytical craft instead of being staffed for utilization. • Direct access to founders, customers and decisions in a small team. • Competitive compensation and meaningful equity, with flexibility between cash and ownership. • A clear path: strong Juniors become Transformation Strategists who own day-to-day account momentum. • Own it. The bar is not “I flagged it.” It is “I moved it forward.” An 80% fix today often beats a perfect answer next week. • Stay close to the customer. Know their real day better than the process document. • Prove it and say it straight. Measure before you propose. Share bad news when you have it. • Use AI and work in public. We use AI on our own work and remain responsible for the output. We write things down in English so someone who missed the meeting can still follow. • Bring intensity and judgment. A good answer can still lose if it arrives too late. The pace is high because the team is small and the customer work is live. • LOCATION AND TRAVEL • This role is UK-based. You will need to be living in the UK, or relocating there before you start, and able to travel to client sites from there. Expect regular travel and periods on site with customers for several days in a week when projects are live. • Competitive compensation and meaningful equity, with flexibility in the balance between cash and ownership. • Direct access to founders, customers and decisions. • The budget and autonomy to use the best AI tools available. • A product already producing measured results in live enterprise operations. • The chance to build a career at the intersection of consulting, operations and AI-led transformation. • We respect your time and move fast: • 1. Screening call. • 2. Hiring manager interview. Fit on problem-solving craft, pace and whether this is the right altitude for you. • 3. Case study panel. A live enterprise problem that tests structure, numbers, prioritisation and clear communication (including slide / written output). • 4. CEO interview. A candid discussion about the role, Duvo and whether this is the environment for you. • We move quickly and give direct feedback throughout.
