Belcan Workforce Solutions is currently looking for a Commercial Lead to work for one of our clients based in Hull, UK.

You will require 'Right to Work' in UK, unfortunately no sponsorship will be available for this role.

You will be in charge of managing cash flow through the submission of AFPs (Average Fund Position). It's essential to submit these AFPs on time. To assess their sufficiency, we will compare the company's theoretically modelled AFP against the actual submitted figures. This comparison is likely to show some discrepancies. In such cases, an exception report will be generated to clarify any differences. We will then analyse this report to identify recurring themes and implement improvements to reduce variance going forward.
