Job description

Senior Commercial Analyst

Hybrid | London | Permanent

£60,000 - £70,000 (dependent on experience) + Bonus + Car Allowance + Private Medical + Strong Pension

An established UK services organisation is looking to strengthen its commercial and pricing capability with the addition of a technically strong analyst. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys financial modelling, pricing strategy and turning complex operational information into commercially robust decisions.

Working on high-value bids, contract renewals and strategic pricing projects, you'll play a key role in developing financial models that influence major business decisions. The role offers significant visibility across senior stakeholders whilst maintaining a strong focus on the technical aspects of modelling and analysis.

What you'll be doing

• Building and maintaining sophisticated financial and pricing models
• Supporting commercial bids, tenders and contract renewals
• Performing scenario, sensitivity and profitability analysis
• Translating operational assumptions into financial outcomes
• Producing clear commercial recommendations for leadership teams
• Supporting business cases and investment decisions
• Analysing contract performance and identifying opportunities for improvement
• Working closely with Finance, Commercial, Operations and Bid teams

What we're looking for

• Strong financial modelling capability with advanced Excel skills
• Experience within pricing, commercial finance, bid finance or financial analysis
• Ability to manipulate large datasets and develop meaningful commercial insight
• Professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) preferred, although part-qualified and QBE candidates will be considered
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Commercially curious mindset with attention to detail
• Ability to communicate financial information to non-finance stakeholders

Ideal Backgrounds

We are particularly interested in candidates from:

• Pricing and bid teams
• Commercial finance functions
• Outsourcing and support services organisations
• Facilities management businesses
• Infrastructure, engineering or project-based environments
• Consultancy or professional services firms with strong modelling exposure

Why this role?

This is a rare opportunity to join a growing team that is deliberately investing in technical commercial capability. Rather than a stakeholder-heavy management position, this role offers genuine ownership of modelling and pricing activity, making it ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex commercial problems and influencing multi-million-pound decisions through data and analysis.

For ambitious analysts looking to deepen their expertise and build a long-term career in commercial pricing, this role offers both challenge and progression in equal measure.
