• Evaluate commercial deals and bids for financial viability and ROI.
• Support sales forecasting, pipeline analysis, and revenue growth strategies.
• Monitor MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue) and churn trends, identifying opportunities for improvement.

Operational Efficiency

• Analyse operational cost drivers, identify inefficiencies, and propose cost‑optimisation strategies.
• Partner with operations to assess service delivery costs and improve productivity.

Customer Service Insights

• Evaluate customer service performance KPIs and their impact on cost‑to‑serve and retention.
• Provide actionable insights to enhance customer experience while controlling costs.

Strategic FP&A & Performance Reporting

• Lead budgeting and forecasting for business units, ensuring alignment with overall strategy.
• Prepare scenario models for new initiatives, product launches, and investment decisions.
• Develop dashboards and reports that clearly communicate the story behind the numbers.

Influence & Challenge

• Proven experience supporting commercial teams.
• Advanced Excel skills.
• Ability to translate financial analysis into actionable business strategies.
