The posting

As our FP&A Analyst, at SPT Labtech you’ll join the Group FP&A team and work at the heart of our Aftersales business (service and consumables). You’ll partner with our commercial and operations teams and help them understand what’s driving performance.

You’ll be based at our Cambridge site on Melbourn Science Park.

This is a role for someone at the start of their finance career who wants real responsibility and broad commercial exposure from day one. Whether you’re already part-qualified or ready to start your ACCA, CIMA or ACA, we’ll back you all the way through your exams and help you build your career in finance.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
