Commercial Analyst - Tourism

Are you a commercially savvy analyst with a knack for turning data into decisions?

Want to work with one of Aotearoa's leading tourism operators and help shape the future of iconic experiences across the lower South Island?

We're looking for a Commercial Analyst to join our Tourism team and play a key role in driving insight-led decision-making across our dynamic business.

Reporting to the Tourism Finance Manager, you'll be our go-to for commercial analysis and reporting – supporting everything from budgeting and business cases to operational performance insights.

This is a hands-on role where you'll work closely with a wide range of stakeholders across our tourism operations, helping us make smarter, faster decisions backed by solid data.

You'll take the lead on maintaining and improving budgeting models, preparing business cases, and delivering clear reporting on key performance indicators, revenue drivers, and cost trends.

Your eye for detail and passion for continuous improvement will shine as you identify ways to streamline processes and improve efficiency.

Collaboration is key – you'll build strong relationships with managers across Queenstown, Fiordland, and beyond, and work closely with the data and reporting team to ensure consistency and accuracy across the board.

You'll also support monthly analysis, contribute to key projects, and help develop non-financial KPIs that reflect what success really looks like on the ground.

This is a fantastic opportunity to bring your commercial acumen into a purpose-driven, adventure-filled environment.

You'll be part of a business that's passionate about people, place, and delivering world-class experiences.

What You'll Bring To The Role

Bachelor's Degree in Finance, Commerce, Business, or a related field

At least 5 years experience in a commercial business role (incl operations, business development)

Proven experience in a commercial or financial analyst role

Strong interpersonal and communication skills – able to work cross-functionally and influence decision-makers

Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment

A proactive and curious mindset with a drive for continuous improvement

What's in it for you?

Enjoy some incredible staff perks!

Bring a friend along to experience RealNZ's unforgettable adventures, either for free or at a fantastic discount.

Explore the Glowworm Caves in Te Anau, cruise Milford and Doubtful Sound, and discover Rakiura.

It's an amazing opportunity to experience the best of New Zealand without breaking the bank!
