Job description

Interim Finance Systems / Technical Accounting Specialist

We're are supporting a key client on a high profile project, needing interim support in a Finance Systems/Technical Accounting role. This will be a long term contract on a day rate guided by experience.

The project will focus on a new revenue stream, which will have its own systems application. The new application and proposition will need to be integrated with the current revenue system, which is archaic. The individual will need to work across the project and the existing systems to understand requirements and what is/is not possible with the current revenue accounting.

There are some complex technical accounting requirements (IFRS15) that need to be interpreted and ‘written into’ the systems application for the proposition. We require a reasonable level of technical accounting knowledge and certainly a Qualified Accountant - The individual must be able to work with the technical accounting team and interpret the requirements and work with the project team to understand how the new system will deliver the requirements.

This will not be a standard system implementation and there will no doubt be challenges, so the individual will need to show resilience and navigate differing requirements across the finance and projects team.

Key deliverables for this role;

• Review the Finance Impact Assessment completed by the Business Analysts, providing feedback and suggesting improvements, amendments, and additions.
• Review the End-to-End Life of a Transaction process flow and take ownership of it.
• Act as the Revenue Accounting representative for the systems application RFP.
• Act as the Revenue Accounting representative for systems application financial reporting requirements.
• Work with the project team to agree the testing and sign-off process for end-to-end life-of-transaction testing and reporting, including month-end processes.

Please apply and we will reach out with further details.
