Who you are...

• A commercially minded finance professional who enjoys looking beyond the numbers to understand what drives the business
• Analytical and naturally curious, with the ability to turn complex or detailed data into a clear commercial narrative
• Confident working with senior stakeholders and comfortable constructively challenging budget holders
• Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Proactive and self-starting, with the confidence to work autonomously
• Collaborative, pragmatic, and resilient, with the ability to stay calm when priorities change

What makes you, you...

Experience

• Experience in cost analysis, cost control, or financial control within a commercial environment
