About The Role
We're seeking a Commercial Analyst to join our Commercial and Risk team, working closely with project, finance, and leadership teams across the BMD Group.

You'll thrive in this role if you enjoy interpreting data to tell the story behind project performance, identifying patterns and risks, and providing insights that help operational and leadership teams make informed decisions. A solid understanding of construction contracts (such as AS2124 or AS4000), variations, claims, and project cost forecasting will be highly regarded, as will an appreciation for the commercial drivers behind project delivery and margin protection.
