Key responsibilities
- Working with Finance stakeholders to shape, coordinate and support a variety of Finance change and continuous improvement initiatives.
- Mapping and analysing end-to-end Finance processes, identifying inefficiencies, manual effort and opportunities to improve controls and scalability.
- Gathering and documenting business requirements, facilitating workshops and translating complex needs into clear, actionable recommendations.
- Supporting the design and implementation of Finance operating model initiatives, including process ownership, service catalogues and governance frameworks.
- Acting as the bridge between Finance teams and Finance systems teams, ensuring processes and systems evolve in a consistent and scalable way.
- Partnering with FP&A and MI teams to align processes, data flows, reporting structures and KPI frameworks.
- Coordinating activities across Finance, Systems, Technology and third-party suppliers to support the successful delivery of agreed initiatives.
- Tracking actions, risks, dependencies and decisions to maintain momentum and ensure positive business outcomes.

We're looking for someone with:
- Experience in business analysis, process improvement, finance transformation or change delivery.
- Strong process mapping, requirements gathering and stakeholder management skills.
- The ability to analyse complex information, identify opportunities and make evidence-based recommendations.
- Experience supporting business or Finance change initiatives from requirements through to implementation and adoption.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
- Experience working with Finance systems, ERP platforms or reporting tools would be advantageous.
- A CIMA, ACCA or equivalent qualification.
