About The Role
This is an exciting opportunity for a driven and analytical individual to join our Commercial team based at our national support centre in Warrington.
As a Commercial Analyst, you'll play a key role in supporting the Commercial Manager and wider business by providing detailed reporting, analysis and insights. You'll work closely with both sales and operational teams, helping to improve performance and identify commercial opportunities across our business.
You'll have the opportunity to work on a wide range of initiatives – from building business-critical reports to supporting strategic reviews and identifying areas for commercial improvement.
Key Responsibilities
In this role, your responsibilities will include:
* Utilising Power BI (Insight) to build and distribute reports to Sales and Operational teams.
* Producing detailed commercial analysis and performance dashboards.
* Conducting ad-hoc analysis to identify trends, opportunities and areas for improvement (e.g. lapsed customers, key account reviews, underperforming asset classes).
* Supporting regular weekly and monthly reporting processes.
* Analysing target adherence across teams and identifying gaps in performance.
* Providing commercial insight to support operational decision-making.
* Assisting in the preparation of customer account reviews and commercial performance summaries.
* Collaborating with the Commercial Manager on projects and strategic initiatives.
* Supporting with rebate tracking and related performance metrics.
This is a high-impact role where your insights will be used to guide real business decisions — perfect for someone who enjoys seeing the outcome of their analysis play out in a hands-on, operational environment.
What can we offer you in return? You'll be joining a highly successful FTSE100 company, the UK's largest equipment rental provider. We provide an Industry leading flexible rewards package including generous holiday allowance (with the opportunity to buy and sell annual leave), life assurance, retail discount scheme, employee recognition awards and a great Company pension scheme.
About You
If you join the team we'll provide you with everything you need and ensure you are equipped for success. We'll talk to you about your training and personal development needs and what you'd like to do to further your career and support your future aspirations.
We're looking for a data-savvy, commercially aware individual who's excited to grow their career within a forward-thinking business.
Key Skills & Experience
* Proficiency in Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs, PivotTables, formulas required; advanced skills a bonus).
* Experience using or a willingness to learn Power BI (or similar data visualisation tools).
* Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with high attention to detail.
* Excellent communication skills — comfortable presenting insights to both technical and non-technical audiences.
* Ability to work independently and use sound judgement to inform decisions.
* A proactive, collaborative approach to working across teams and departments.
* Adaptability to thrive in a fast-paced, service-led environment.
* Commitment to continuous improvement and enthusiasm for learning.
