We are supporting a Financial Services business. While their market cap is in the 10's of billions, they may be one of the biggest companies you have never heard of. In our opinion, they have some of the best commercial people in the industry, and their people retention is indisputable. Commercial people tend not to leave. They pride themselves on winning deals based on commercial innovation and understanding the clients' needs better than the competition do; bright people thrive here.

They are looking for a Commercial Manager who aspires to develop a career with them.

You will be working on some of the most complex contracts in the Financial Services industry. They prefer their people to be all-rounders; you will cover pre-sign, contract management, as well as complex supplier contracts. You will be given a level of freedom and autonomy to operate and make decisions within Group Commercial policy, but support and feedback will be there as and when you need it.
