Analyse financial data, project expenditure and contractor performance to identify trends, risks, discrepancies and potential areas for further investigation.
Review actual cost reimbursement and other commercial contracting models, including cost-reimbursable, target-cost and other complex contractual arrangements.
Interpret and apply different contractual and commercial frameworks when assessing costs, entitlements, changes and claims.
Support the development and implementation of cost control strategies and project reporting frameworks.
Prepare high-quality cost reports, audit documentation, working papers and supporting evidence.
Produce clear, concise and robust reports outlining findings, cost risks, conclusions and recommendations for senior stakeholders.
Engage confidently with contractors, clients, regulatory bodies and other relevant stakeholders throughout the cost management, audit and assurance process.
Support the development and application of forensic technology, data analytics, cost management systems and cost assurance tools.
Contribute to the continuous improvement of cost management, cost assurance methodologies, processes and tools.
Support the Canada Operations Director and other senior Gleeds team members on project delivery and wider business initiatives.

Who we’re looking for:

Preferred Experience, Knowledge And Key Skills

A minimum of 5 years’ relevant experience in cost management, cost assurance, commercial management, quantity surveying, audit or a similar discipline, ideally including experience in a lead or senior role.

Proven experience auditing and verifying actual costs and assessing the accuracy and appropriateness of contractor costs.
Experience developing and delivering risk-based audit plans and programmes.
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to review and interpret complex financial, cost and commercial data.
Experience analysing vendor or contractor financial performance, costs and supporting documentation.
Experience preparing detailed cost reports, forecasts, projections and recommendations based on financial and commercial analysis.

Experience using Oracle Enterprise or similar enterprise financial/business management systems would be advantageous.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate complex cost, financial and commercial information clearly to a range of stakeholders.
Strong attention to detail and the ability to work independently while managing multiple priorities.

Beneficial Experience

Strong experience in cost management and cost control across the full project lifecycle, from estimating and budgeting through to forecasting, reporting and final account.
Experience developing, managing and reviewing project budgets, cost plans, forecasts and expenditure profiles.
Proven experience analysing actual costs, commitments, forecasts, variances and final cost positions.
Experience reviewing and challenging contractor cost reports, applications for payment, forecasts and supporting documentation.
Experience in change control, variations, claims and commercial cost assessment.
Experience working with cost-reimbursable, target-cost or other complex contracting models.
Strong understanding of project cost control, commercial management, cost reporting and financial governance.
Experience undertaking cost analysis, benchmarking and reviewing rates, estimates and forecasts.
Experience with cost management and project controls software would be advantageous.
Strong stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to challenge cost information and commercial assumptions where appropriate.
Ability to identify commercial and cost risks and translate analysis into practical recommendations for project leadership.
