About the Role

You will work directly with the Head of Tours, product, procurement, and sales teams, and attend the business reviews where your analysis drives commercial decisions and business strategy.

Planning, budgeting and forecasting — own the annual budget and rolling forecasts, built around seasonal peaks.

Management reporting and decision support — monthly management reporting with variance analysis against budget, forecast and prior year; own the KPI dashboard; build business cases for new routes, products, promotional campaigns and system investment.

Process improvement, systems and data — streamline month-end close, supplier reconciliation and commission computation; build and maintain tour profitability dashboards that the business actually uses.
