- Enable executive decision-making: Develop concise, insight-rich materials for senior stakeholders. Build robust business cases to support investment decisions,
- Influence across the business: Serve as a trusted advisor across Product, Finance, Operations, and Digital.
What you’ll ideally bring:
You’re a strategic thinker with a strong analytical toolkit and a bias for action. You’re equally comfortable in Excel and know how to turn data into influence.
- 5+ years in commercial, strategy, consulting or similar.
- Proven experience driving outcomes across cross-functional projects.
- Expertise in commercial modelling, forecasting, business casing, or investment analysis.
- Confident communicator who can engage, challenge, and influence senior stakeholders.

What’s in it for you:
- Be at the centre of Cargo’s biggest decisions and transformation efforts.

- Join a team that’s collaborative, intellectually curious, and ambitious for impact.
- Shape your own career path within a growing and evolving part of Air New Zealand.
