An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Commercial Finance Analyst to join a well-established organisation during a period of significant change and business transformation.

This is a highly visible role where you'll work closely with commercial, operational and senior leadership teams, providing the financial insight and commercial challenge needed to support key business decisions. You'll play a pivotal role in improving business performance, identifying opportunities for growth and profitability, and influencing strategic direction.

If you enjoy partnering with stakeholders, challenging assumptions and turning financial information into commercial action, this is an excellent opportunity to make a genuine impact.

The Role

As Commercial Finance Analyst, you will:

• Partner with commercial and operational teams to improve business performance and support strategic decision-making.
• Analyse profitability, pricing, revenue and margin performance, identifying opportunities to maximise commercial returns.
• Build financial models and undertake scenario planning to support budgeting, forecasting and investment decisions.
• Provide insightful financial analysis and recommendations that influence business strategy.
• Monitor business performance, highlighting risks, opportunities and key commercial drivers.
• Support monthly business reviews and board reporting with meaningful financial commentary.
• Collaborate with teams across trading, marketing and operations to deliver business objectives.
• Identify opportunities to improve financial reporting and planning processes to enhance decision-making.

About You

To be successful, you'll bring:

• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification, part qualification or be qualified by experience (QBE).
• Previous experience within Commercial Finance, FP&A or Finance Business Partnering.
• A strong understanding of commercial drivers, including profitability, pricing, margin and business performance.
• The confidence to influence, challenge and build credibility with stakeholders across the business.
• Strong financial modelling and advanced Excel skills.
• A proactive, commercially curious approach with excellent problem-solving abilities.
• Experience of Power BI or similar BI tools would be advantageous but is not essential.
• The ability to commute to Wolverhampton for three days per week.

What's in it for you?

• Salary up to £50,000 plus benefits.
• Hybrid working (3 days office / 2 days home).
• The opportunity to make a visible commercial impact within a supportive and collaborative organisation.
• Exposure to a wide range of strategic projects during an exciting period of change.
• A varied role where you'll work closely with senior stakeholders and directly influence business performance.

This is far more than a reporting role. We're looking for someone who enjoys understanding the commercial story behind the numbers, building relationships across the business and helping shape better decisions through high-quality financial insight.
