  • Translate financial and operational data into meaningful recommendations for the wider business
  • Support customer reviews and contribute to commercial and business planning
  • Identify opportunities to improve reporting, systems, processes and ways of working

What’s on Offer


  • Genuine business partnering exposure with senior commercial leaders
