I’m looking for an experienced Finance Lead to play a pivotal role in a major finance and business transformation programme. This isn’t a role where you’ll simply provide finance input from the sidelines. You’ll be at the heart of Project Nexus, representing finance throughout the design and delivery of a new Lead-to-Cash operating model.
You’ll work across finance, technology and the wider business to make sure processes, systems, controls, accounting policies and reporting requirements are properly considered and built into the future-state solution.
- Providing direction and supporting decisions across all finance-related programme activity
- Making sure finance requirements are captured, prioritised and aligned with the wider programme
- Representing finance in design workshops, governance forums and steering meetings
- Leading the finance input across GL, financial dimensions, intercompany accounting, consolidations, revenue recognition, accounts receivable, collections and fixed assets
- Identifying and escalating risks, issues and dependencies
- Leading finance involvement in end-to-end UAT
- Supporting cutover planning, deployment and hypercare
- Helping to resolve post-go-live issues and stabilise new processes
A qualified accountant – ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent. Significant finance transformation or ERP implementation experience. Strong knowledge of finance operations, controls and month-end processes. Experience leading finance teams through system and organisational change. A solid understanding of GL, financial reporting, intercompany accounting, consolidations and revenue recognition. The confidence to challenge, influence and communicate effectively with senior stakeholders.
The role is hybrid, with three days a week in the Oxford office and some additional flexibility required around cutover. It can be offered as either a fixed-term contract or a contractor appointment, depending on the successful person. If you enjoy getting into the detail, bringing people together and making sure transformation delivers what finance genuinely needs, I’d love to hear from you.
