[UK] Moving from FTSE100 Corp Reporting Function to Commercial Manager

Post big4 ACA qualification I've done about two years of Financial Reporting and now I'm trying to move into internal Commercial Finance at a FTSE to broaden my CV (and get away from auditors)

Ive got an interview coming up for a 'commercial finance insight role' the problem is that these roles appear a bit more wooly than the standard financial reporting jobs.

I feel like I have the fundamental skills for the role but there is clearly a knowledge gap - can anyone kindly direct me to some good resources for learning about the metrics/ kPIs / P&l focus applied in Insight Commercial Finance role - for example in a telecoms company?

tldr: Moving into a more commercial role but need help finding resources to narrow the knoweldge gap so I actually have a chance during the interview x
