About Lyst

Lyst is a global fashion shopping platform founded in London in 2010 and catering to over 160M shoppers per year. We offer our customers the largest assortment of premium & luxury fashion products in one place, curating pieces from 27,000 of the world's leading brands and stores. In 2025, Lyst joined Zozo, operators of Zozotown, the leading fashion e-commerce platform in Japan. This partnership marks a bold new era for Lyst, as we accelerate our vision and work together to transform the future of fashion shopping through AI and technology.

At Lyst, we obsess over the customer, providing a search & discovery experience which offers inspiration, fulfilment, and personalisation. We believe that fashion is amazing but shopping for fashion often isn't, and use our technology, data and creativity to bring more joy, greater choice and fewer fails. Our mission is to help fashion shoppers make better decisions and help fashion partners find better audiences as the category-leading destination for every fashion shopper.

About the Role

We are looking to hire a qualified Senior FP&A Analyst to join our FP&A and Strategy team. This is a great opportunity for the right individual to make a mark in a small but high performing team in a fast paced environment.

As a team we are focussed on ensuring that our reporting and analysis is robust and impactful to enable the business to understand its performance, and we play a key part in setting the budget, longer term plans and KPIs for the rest of the business.

• Supporting the Senior FP&A and Strategy managers during budget and longer range planning cycles by building financial models, performing sensitivity analysis and collaborating with key stakeholders across core finance and marketing
• Performing market and competitor research to benchmark our performance, and to understand any risks and opportunities for the business, often contributing to broader strategy papers and initiatives
• Supporting teams across the business with investment appraisal and modelling for new initiatives and ongoing monitoring and reporting
• Continuously seek to improve and automate our processes, ensuring deliverables are accurate and deadlines achieved

• Love using AI and productivity tools to automate and improve your day to day

• Our Ways of Working: We all come into the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with the option to work remotely or come into the office on the other days.

• Competitive Family Leave Package: This includes Enhanced Family Leave for those eligible, paid Time off for Dependents and Support for Fertility Treatment & Loss.

• Private Healthcare: Our healthcare provider is Vitality. Your health is important to us which is why we offer all employees a comprehensive healthcare scheme from the day you start.
• Training Allowance: We’re big on continuous learning and growth, so all employees are currently entitled to an annual training allowance of £1,000. This can be used to attend conferences, industry events, training courses and to purchase resources.
• Pension Scheme: Our pension provider is The People’s Pension. We offer a minimum employee contribution of 5% and 3% employer contribution.
• Eye Tests and Vouchers: Employees can make a saving on their eye test and glasses through our chosen provider. You’ll receive a free eye test every year and a discount towards glasses.

We recognise and celebrate the value and impact diversity brings to our company and are committed to ensuring this is a consistent focus, for which we are held to account. We are committed to treating all applicants fairly and equally, and encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply for this role. We are happy to talk about flexible working arrangements.

At Lyst we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
