Job Summary

We are seeking a Senior Business Analyst to support the Water Transmission business.

Water Transmission is a multi-site manufacturing business serving the North American water market, an area of particular growth focus for CRH.

This is a core financial planning and analysis role: you will own management reporting, forecasting, and budgeting across the business.

You will do more than produce numbers.

You will explain what is driving results, constructively challenge performance and assumptions, and build financial understanding among operational and commercial colleagues.

With the SAP implementation retiring the existing reporting suite, you will help design and shape what management reporting looks like rather than inherit an established set of packs.

* Deliver corporate and Group reporting requirements accurately and on deadline, while reviewing and rationalizing recurring submissions so reporting effort stays proportionate to the value it adds

* Track and analyze key sales metrics, including average selling price (ASP), volume, and mix, producing price / volume / mix bridges by product line, customer, and region to explain movements in revenue and margin
