• Improving commercial reporting, processes and governance across the business.
• Working closely with senior management and project teams to provide commercial guidance and support.
• Supporting and mentoring colleagues to improve commercial awareness across the business.

• Significant commercial management experience within construction, engineering, contracting or consultancy.
• Strong understanding of construction contracts, particularly JCT and NEC.
• Experience managing commercial risk, contractual obligations, fee negotiations and project profitability.
• Experience working across complex projects involving multiple consultants and stakeholders.
• Excellent communication, negotiation and problem-solving skills.
• Confidence working with senior management and advising project teams on commercial matters.
• A commercially minded, practical and collaborative approach.
