• Support new product development, commercial negotiations and ad hoc analysis in a fast-paced, evolving business environment

About You

• Experience in commercial finance, management accounting or business analysis within FMCG, manufacturing, supply chain or similar commercial environments

• Strong analytical, problem-solving and financial modelling capabilities with the ability to translate data into actionable insights

• Sound commercial acumen with experience across budgeting, forecasting, and commercial analysis
