You will manage procurement of subcontractor packages, lead commercial meetings, and maintain strong financial control through cash flow forecasting, cost value reconciliation, and financial reporting. The role will also involve providing clear contractual and commercial advice to the site team, managing change control, preparing interim valuations, supporting payment processes, and contributing to monthly project and cost review meetings. Mentoring and supporting junior members of the commercial team will also form part of the position.
