The organisation is focused on continually improving its financial systems and processes to support effective financial management and informed business decision-making.
The successful candidate will play an important role in maintaining system integrity, supporting system enhancements and helping colleagues make the most of finance applications and reporting tools. Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and/or Power BI would be particularly beneficial, although candidates with experience of comparable systems are also encouraged to apply.

While in this position your duties may include but may not be limited to:

• Supporting the delivery of finance systems projects, enhancements and continuous improvement initiatives, ensuring activities progress in line with agreed plans and deadlines.
• Maintaining and supporting finance systems and related processes, including accounting applications, purchase ordering systems and other finance tools.
• Administering system master data, user access, permissions, organisational structures and accounting hierarchies, ensuring accuracy and appropriate controls.
• Monitoring system performance, investigating issues and working with colleagues and suppliers to resolve problems efficiently.
• Supporting the implementation of new systems, functionality and process improvements, contributing to project planning, testing and delivery.
• Developing, maintaining and enhancing financial reports and management information to meet business and stakeholder requirements.
• Using reporting tools and data analysis to help improve the quality, accessibility and usefulness of financial information.
• Supporting financial systems controls through reconciliations, data reviews, testing and assurance activities.
• Creating and maintaining system documentation, procedures and guidance to support consistency and business continuity.
• Developing and delivering training materials to help colleagues use finance systems effectively, explaining technical information in a clear and accessible way.
• Building strong working relationships with Finance colleagues, system users, stakeholders and external suppliers to ensure systems meet business needs.
• Gathering user feedback and identifying opportunities to improve systems, processes and reporting capabilities.
• Contributing to the wider Finance Systems team programme while balancing competing priorities and maintaining high standards of accuracy and service.

What You Will Need to Apply:

• Proven accountancy experience and a sound understanding of financial processes and accounting principles.
• Experience implementing, administering, maintaining or improving finance and accounting systems.
• Strong IT skills, including advanced Microsoft Office knowledge and expert-level Excel capability.
• Experience developing financial reports, management information and analytical outputs to support business decisions.
• An understanding of financial controls, reconciliations, data integrity and system governance.
• Experience supporting system changes, project delivery or process improvement within a finance environment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail.
• The ability to interpret financial and operational data and communicate findings clearly.
• Effective planning and organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple tasks and competing deadlines.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to support and train colleagues with varying levels of technical knowledge.
• A collaborative and proactive approach, with the ability to work independently and build relationships across different teams.

Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and/or Power BI would be particularly advantageous. Familiarity with other ERP systems or business intelligence tools will also be valuable. An accounting qualification, alongside experience of scripting, programming or automation, would be beneficial but is not essential.
Experience working within a large corporate or complex organisation would be an advantage, although candidates from other environments with relevant finance systems experience are encouraged to apply.

What You Will Get in Return:
In return, you will receive a salary of £37,000–£42,000, alongside the opportunity to develop your career at the intersection of finance, systems and technology.
This position offers varied responsibilities across financial reporting, systems administration, project delivery and process improvement, allowing you to broaden your technical expertise while making a meaningful contribution to the organisation's financial operations.
