Day to day that means:
- Supporting pricing decisions tenders and deal reviews

If you enjoy working closely with the business influencing decisions and seeing the impact of your work this is a good opportunity to do exactly that.
Its a role with a broad remit and plenty of visibility where the expectation is that finance actively contributes not just reports on whats already happened.
If youre looking for a role where you can work closely with the business and have a real input into decisions wed like to hear from you.
