About Gema Group

Gema Group is an Australian catering and hospitality organisation delivering food and beverage operations across stadiums, major sporting events, entertainment venues and hospitality facilities nationally.

As our operations continue to grow, we are strengthening our procurement capability through improved data analysis, commercial reporting and evidence-based decision-making.

The Role

We are seeking a highly analytical, commercially minded and solutions-focused Procurement & Commercial Data Analyst to provide support to our National Procurement & Supply Chain team.

Reporting directly to the General Manager of Procurement & Supply Chain, the successful candidate will analyse large volumes of supplier invoices, purchasing transactions and procurement expenditure to identify trends, commercial opportunities, inefficiencies and potential risks.

The Ideal Candidate...

We are looking for someone who can take a large, unstructured dataset and independently answer three critical questions:

1. What is the data telling us? Identify trends, issues, anomalies and commercial opportunities.
2. Why does it matter? Explain the financial and operational implications for the business.
3. What should we do about it? Develop and confidently present practical recommendations that improve commercial performance.

Key Responsibilities...

- Analysing and reconciling supplier invoices, transactions and spend across multiple venues, suppliers and systems
- Spotting pricing inconsistencies, inefficiencies,



anomalies and cost-saving opportunities
- Reviewing supplier pricing, volumes, rebates and contractual commitments
- Building business cases and cost-benefit assessments, and quantifying savings and risk
- Supporting tenders and supplier negotiations with financial modelling and comparative cost analysis
- Designing advanced Excel workbooks, dashboards and automated reporting tools
- Presenting findings and recommendations to the GM, Senior Management and ELT, and handling questions and challenges

Key Requirements...

- Advanced Microsoft Excel capability is essential. Applicants must be able to demonstrate extensive hands-on experience.
- Proven experience analysing large financial, purchasing or transactional datasets.
- Strong commercial acumen and the ability to interpret the business implications of financial data.
- Demonstrated ability to develop practical, evidence-based solutions and recommendations from analytical findings.
- Confidence and experience presenting data, conclusions and recommendations to senior management or executive stakeholders.
- Ability to challenge existing processes and propose alternative approaches supported by financial analysis.




- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Robust attention to detail, numerical reasoning and problem-solving capabilities.
- Ability to work independently, manage priorities and meet reporting deadlines.
- A proactive, inquisitive and solutions-oriented approach.

Desirable add-ons...

- Experience in catering, hospitality, foodservice, stadiums or major events.
- Background in procurement, supply chain, finance or commercial analysis.
- Experience working with supplier contracts, rebates and pricing structures.
- Experience using procurement, inventory or ERP systems.
- Power BI, SQL or other business intelligence capabilities.
- Qualifications in Business, Finance, Accounting, Economics or Supply Chain.

Industry experience would be advantageous but is not essential. Strong analytical capability, commercial judgement and the ability to communicate solutions are more advantageous. What’s in it for you

- Direct exposure to Senior Management and the Executive Leadership Team
- The chance to influence significant national procurement and commercial initiatives
- Full-time hours, with working arrangements to be discussed
- Potential to transition into full-time employment at the end of the contract.
- A down-to-earth, family-owned business where your work is seen and makes a difference
