Hybrid – 1 day per fortnight in the office


Up to £55,000


We’re supporting a purpose-led, commercially driven organisation looking to appoint a Senior Commercial Insight Analyst to sit at the heart of sales and performance decision-making.


This is not a reporting role.


This is a commercial insight role where you’ll work closely with senior leadership to interpret performance, identify revenue and margin opportunities, and turn complex data into clear commercial action.


You’ll partner directly with Sales, Commercial and Finance stakeholders, helping them understand:



  • Where revenue is being won and lost
  • Margin drivers and underperformance trends
  • Conversion and pipeline effectiveness
  • Pricing impact and opportunity areas
  • Forecast accuracy and scenario planning

The business already has strong data foundations. What they need now is someone who can interpret it, challenge constructively, and provide a strong “so what”.


What you’ll be doing

  • Owning commercial and sales performance reporting across the business
  • Analysing margin, revenue and conversion trends
  • Supporting pricing and performance optimisation decisions
  • Building and improving Power BI dashboards that focus on insight, not just visuals
  • Working closely with Finance to connect operational performance to financial impact
  • Presenting findings to senior stakeholders with clear recommendations

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience in commercial, revenue or sales performance analysis
  • Strong understanding of margin, forecasting and financial drivers
  • Confident working with senior stakeholders
  • Power BI capability (comfortable building and improving models)
  • Ability to translate data into clear commercial recommendations

How Many Machine Learning Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Machine Learning Job?

Machine learning is one of the most exciting and rapidly growing areas of tech. But for job seekers it can also feel like a maze of tools, frameworks and platforms. One job advert wants TensorFlow and Keras. Another mentions PyTorch, scikit-learn and Spark. A third lists Mlflow, Docker, Kubernetes and more. With so many names out there, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you must learn everything just to be competitive. Here’s the honest truth most machine learning hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool. They hire you because you can solve real problems with the tools you know. Tools are important — no doubt — but context, judgement and outcomes matter far more. So how many machine learning tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the real number is far smaller than you think — and more logically grouped. This guide breaks down exactly what employers expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to structure your learning for real career results.
