Support annual fee uplift submissions to local authorities, NHS commissioners and other funding bodies.
Analyse supplier expenditure and identify potential savings and efficiencies.
Support procurement exercises, supplier evaluations and contract negotiations.
Prepare business cases, sensitivity analyses and commercial reports for senior decision-makers.

What you will bring - Previous experience in a similar commercial, finance or analytical role.

Experience in financial analysis, budgeting, forecasting or cost modelling.
Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills.
Strong numerical reasoning and attention to detail.
The ability to work with complex datasets and explain findings clearly.

A proactive approach and the confidence to work independently.
Effective stakeholder engagement and communication skills.
Relevant qualifications in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business or a related subject.
At least 12 months remaining on your right to work in the UK, if applicable.
