Use all your skills in a fast-paced, commercial environment. When you join us in this important hands-on role you’ll use all your commercial skills of working in a delivery supplier environment as you focus on sales, forecasting, reporting, commercial analytics, governance and risk management. Actively managing information you receive from Relationship and Bid Managers and other senior colleagues, you’ll leverage action to record data that enables accurate reporting. We’ll also expect you to deliver high quality forecasts and annual revenue budgets, and be dedicated to continuous improvement as you implement efficient and effective commercial controls and processes.
