Commercial Analyst x2

Two Commercial Analyst contracts have just opened up inside the Technology function of a leading Australian insurer. 
 
You’ll be the engine behind contract, budget and invoice flow for the Technology Services and Project Management teams. Think end-to-end ownership of cost centres, SOW approvals, forecasting, and the operational rhythm that keeps a busy Tech function moving.
 
What you’ll do

• Manage contract negotiations, load into DocuSign, push through budget approval and into PeopleSoft
• Own invoice approvals, monthly accruals and purchase order processes
• Track expenditure against forecast and budget, including monthly reporting on FTE and EDP
• Support SOW approvals and contract register upkeep
• Manage Tech team expenses across REM, Tech and Spend categories
• Partner with Legal, Finance and Procurement on day-to-day delivery
• Identify automation and process improvement opportunities (the team is moving more into automation and data support)

What we’re after

• Strong Excel and analytical chops, comfortable preparing and interpreting financial results
• Sharp attention to detail and genuine common sense
• Experience following strict procedures and approval flows in a high-volume environment
• Confident handling stakeholders well above your paygrade
• Fast-paced environment experience, can-do attitude, good soft skills
• PeopleSoft experience is a bonus, not a deal-breaker, easy to pick up
• Background in financial services, insurance or banking ideal
• PeopleSoft experience nice to have but not mandatory

 
 
The detail

• Sydney CBD, 3 days onsite
• Initial 6 month contract with strong potential to extend or convert to perm
• 2-3 stage interview process, shortlist closing Thursday midday
• Immediate start
