This is a unique opportunity to join a growing team and play a pivotal role throughout the full project lifecycle – from supporting the development of commercially robust proposals through to providing ongoing commercial and financial oversight during delivery.

Working closely with subject matter experts, project teams and senior stakeholders, you will help shape solutions, develop financial models, assess commercial risks and ensure projects are delivered in line with agreed financial and commercial objectives.

Contribute to the continuous improvement of systems, processes and commercial tools

Strong commercial awareness and excellent numerical skills
Advanced Excel and financial modelling capability
Experience working with project budgets, forecasting, pricing or commercial analysis
Strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills
Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail

This role could be particularly well suited to a Project Manager looking to move into a more commercially focused position, a Commercial Analyst seeking greater project ownership, or a Bid/Proposal professional wanting broader involvement across project delivery.

What's on Offer

Salary of £45,000 - £56,000 depending on experience
Performance-related bonus scheme
Generous holiday allowance
Defined benefit pension scheme
Hybrid working
Excellent professional development opportunities
Exposure to high-profile and intellectually stimulating projects
