About the Role
As Junior Commercial Analyst, you’ll play a key role in delivering quality reporting, insightful analysis, and clear communication that informs business decisions and strengthens financial performance.
Working closely with the Senior Commercial Analyst, you’ll contribute to budgeting, forecasting, performance reporting, and data governance activities across Uniting’s Housing and Property portfolios.
Your work will support both operational and strategic goals – making sure our frontline managers have the timely, accurate and relevant information they need to make the best decisions for the people we serve.
