Numbers don't lie. But they do need translating.
We're looking for a Junior Commercial Analyst who knows how to turn data into direction. Someone who doesn't just report on performance but helps shape it.
This role sits at the intersection of finance, sales, and strategy. You'll analyse what's happening, why it's happening, and what we should do next. Real insights. Real impact.

Commercial & Financial Analysis

• Analyse sales, revenue, cost and profitability trends.
• Support pricing decisions, margin analysis and cost drivers.
• Track KPIs and support forecasting and financial models.

Market & Competitor Intelligence

• Research market trends, competitors and customer behaviour.
• Identify risks, opportunities and commercial blind spots.
• Back strategy with data, not opinion.

Reporting & Insights

• Build dashboards and reports that decision-makers actually use.
• Translate numbers into clear, actionable insights.
• Support management presentations and commercial reviews.

Strategy & Business Support

• Assist with budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis.
• Support business cases, growth initiatives and commercial projects.
• Analyse promotions, pricing and sales performance with sales and finance.

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Work cross-functionally to support growth initiatives.
• Provide analytical input into contracts, suppliers and investments.
• Be the go-to data support for commercial decision-making.

What You'll Need

Skills & Experience

• Strong communication skills -- you can explain numbers in plain language.
• Commercial curiosity -- you understand how numbers link to real business outcomes.

Why This Role Matters
This isn't a back-office analyst role.
Your work will influence pricing, margins, strategy and growth.
If you want to learn fast, think commercially, and build a strong foundation in analytics -- this is where you start.
