Responsibilities
Solution Design & Implementation: You will conduct deep-dive analyses of complex client requirements through virtual workshops and process mapping sessions. You will then translate these business needs into robust, scalable, and best-practice-aligned solution designs. Your hands-on work will involve configuring market-leading cloud applications (such as Oracle EPM/ERP, OneStream, Workday, etc.), building financial models, developing integration workflows, and creating sophisticated reports and dashboards that provide critical insights to our clients
Functional Solution Design: You will lead the functional design of financial systems. This involves conducting workshops with Controllers and FP&A Directors to define Chart of Accounts (CoA) structures, design financial consolidation logic, and map 'Record-to-Report' or 'Plan-to-Perform' processes. You will ensure the technology solution aligns strictly with accounting standards (IFRS/GAAP) and strategic reporting needs
Finance Transformation: You will advise clients on best-practice finance operating models. This includes streamlining period-end close cycles, automating reconciliation processes, and designing driver-based forecasting models that provide actionable commercial insights
Client Collaboration: Serving as the translator between IT and Finance, you will manage relationships with finance stakeholders across Europe. You will articulate how cloud solutions impact day-to-day accounting operations and strategic planning
Project Delivery: Manage specific functional workstreams (e.g., General Ledger, Consolidation, Planning) with autonomy. You will own the creation of functional specifications, user acceptance testing (UAT) scripts, and training materials for finance users
Onsite Engagement: While primarily based in Belfast (hybrid), you may travel to client sites across Europe for critical design workshops and go-live support, ensuring that the 'human' side of finance transformation is managed effectively
