Commercial Analyst
Swindon – Hybrid
We’re Arval BNP Paribas – we’re a global leader in vehicle leasing and the fourth largest leasing company in the UK. Our passion for Service, Sustainability, and Solutions is brought to life by each and every one of our people – who we call Journey Makers.
Culturally, we’re a friendly bunch – more human than corporate – and we serve a diverse customer base. From families choosing their first electric vehicle, to global brands seeking to switch their fleets to electric vehicles, whatever our customers’ mobility needs, we have a solution to offer.
Why join Arval?
In addition to the benefits and opportunities that come with being part of a progressive global banking group, we have a supportive and collaborative culture where wellbeing and work-life balance are taken seriously. Which is why we recently won the Wellbeing category of the 2024 Business Car Awards.

As a Commercial Analyst, you will support the Commercial Finance Manager by providing analysis that informs business decisions across fleet, product, sales targets, and commissions.

Some of your key responsibilities will include:
- Supporting the Commercial Finance Manager and Sales teams with fleet forecasting and reporting on key activity metrics
- Producing data for commission payments and providing accurate, timely reports to stakeholders
