- Analyse key cost drivers (including fleet mix, damage and claims, and operational costs) to identify profitability and efficiency opportunities
- Build robust business cases, track benefits, and complete post‑implementation reviews for operational initiatives
- Deliver insightful reporting and dashboards (actuals vs forecast, trends and KPIs) to support weekly and monthly trading rhythms
- Own budgeting and forecasting models, clearly articulating risks, opportunities and key drivers to stakeholders
- Model and evaluate commission structures (including IRPD), providing scenario analysis and recommendations aligned to financial guardrails
- Interpret commercial documents such as lease agreements, RFPs and tenders, identifying financial implications and risks
- Translate analysis into clear, compelling recommendations and present insights to stakeholders at all levels
- Build, automate and improve decision‑support tools using Excel (including Power Query) and BI / planning systems such as TM1, Tableau, Looker or NetSuite
Your skills matter
To be successful in the role, you will bring:
- 5+ years’ experience in commercial finance, FP&A or a similar analytical role
- CA or CPA qualification (or equivalent) — preferred
- Advanced financial modelling and problem‑solving skills, with strong attention to detail
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to turn data into a clear commercial story
- Confidence working with ambiguity in a fast‑moving environment
- Advanced Excel capability (including Power Query) and comfort working with large data sets
- Experience with financial systems and BI tools (TM1, Tableau, Looker, NetSuite)
As part of our recruitment process, successful applicants will be required to complete pre-employment checks.
