Financial Insights Specialist

Kōrero mō te tūranga | About the role

This is a 9‑month fixed‑term opportunity until January 2027 within our Strategic Finance community, supporting priority initiatives at a pivotal time for Contact and the energy sector.

This role sits within our Strategic Finance community and works across Teams and Initiatives in a connected, matrixed operating model. You’ll bring financial insight into the heart of decision‑making — not as an observer, but as an active contributor.

In this role, you will:

• Partner with Business Unit Strategic Partners and initiative leads to support investment cases, performance discussions, and enterprise decisions
• Help shape and uplift how financial insights are developed across Contact — bringing consistency, clarity, and decision‑readiness
• Apply strong technical judgement to variance analysis, KPIs, performance commentary, and cost allocation approaches
• Contribute to governance, quality, and audit‑ready insight through technical review and sign‑off
• Work collaboratively across Finance disciplines, value streams, and initiatives to influence outcomes and build trust
• Support strategic initiatives and senior reporting by translating financial data into meaningful, actionable insight
• Role‑model adaptability and continuous improvement in how Finance works, learns, and delivers value

This is a role for someone comfortable operating through complexity, balancing technical depth with commercial pragmatism, and influencing without formal authority.
