# FP&A Data Analyst at ARQ

- **Company:** ARQ
- **Location:** London, United Kingdom
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** hybrid
- **Posted:** 2026-10-20
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-10-23

## Job description

## What we're looking for

Do you like knowing exactly why a number moved? As an FP&A Data Analyst at ARQ, you'll own the data foundations behind our revenue, cost and management reporting. You'll sit between Finance and Engineering: building the models that tell us how the business is performing, keeping them accurate every day, and turning them into insight that leadership uses to make decisions. This is a hands-on role for someone who is as comfortable in a dbt project or a Python codebase as in a P&L. You'll work closely with Finance, Treasury and Engineering, and your work will feed management, investor and regulatory reporting directly.

## What you'll be doing

- Own the finance data layer: Maintain and extend our dbt repo. That means building and refactoring models, writing tests, and keeping finance data clean, documented and reliable.
- Revenue and cost models: Build and maintain the models behind revenue, unit economics and operations costs (payment rails, FX, card, banking partners, vendors) across our markets.
- Management accounts: Support daily and monthly management accounts on both accrual and cash basis. Reconcile them to source systems and explain movements.
- Budgeting and forecasting: Feed actuals into the budget and forecast, run variance analysis, and help Finance understand what is driving performance.
- Python services: Help maintain and improve the internal Python services and pipelines that support finance reporting and reconciliation.
- Data mapping and requirements: Map data sources across our product and payments stack, and document business logic and assumptions so others can trust and reuse your work.
- Onboard new business: When we launch a new product, partner or market, make sure it flows correctly into financial reporting, controls and processes.
- Dashboards and reporting: Build and improve dashboards with Finance and Controllership that track key metrics and surface business drivers.
- Anomalies and controls: Spot breaks, unusual spikes or data quality issues early, find the root cause, and fix it at the source.
- Data literacy: Help the wider team understand and self-serve finance data.

## What you'll need

- 3+ years in a data, analytics or FP&A role, ideally in fintech, banking or payments
- Strong SQL and solid Python
- Hands-on experience with dbt (or a similar transformation tool) and version control (Git)
- A good grasp of financial statements, management accounts and core finance concepts (accruals, revenue recognition, unit economics)
- A quantitative background, through education or experience
- Strong attention to detail and a quality-first mindset, while still able to work to tight deadlines
- Clear communication: you can explain a variance to a CFO and a data model to an engineer
- Initiative to automate repetitive work and improve how things are done

## Nice to have

- Experience with regulatory or external reporting
- Exposure to reconciliations, treasury or general ledger data
- Experience with BI tools (Metabase, Looker, Power BI) and orchestration tools (Airflow or similar)
- Experience maintaining production code: code review, testing, CI/CD
- Spanish or Portuguese proficiency

## Benefits

- Competitive salary and benefits
- Stock options, so you own part of what you build
- Discretionary performance bonus
- The latest tools and technology
- A world-class team that will challenge and grow your skills
- The opportunity to help build the best fintech app in Latin America
- Office Policy: 3-4 days a week in-office
