You will be confident working across the full finance cycle of project expenditure and comfortable taking ownership of cost reporting, project P&L, forecasting, variance analysis and commercial insight.

Strong Excel skills and the ability to interpret financial information in a commercial context will be important. You will need to be hands-on, proactive and comfortable working in a growing business where finance plays a key role in supporting project delivery.

Experience gained within construction, infrastructure, engineering, international projects, manufacturing, logistics or a similar project-based environment would be particularly relevant, although candidates from other commercially focused finance backgrounds will also be considered.

Strong project accounting, management accounting or commercial finance experience
Experience managing project costs, expenditure, budgets, forecasts and P&L reporting
