Our client, a leading PE backed retailer based in Central London is looking for a Finance Systems Business Analyst. The business has grown significantly over the years and have developed a global footprint in the market due to their customer focus and strong product offering.
You will be responsible for managing the finance systems, understanding the finance processes and needs, documenting procedures and delivering training to end users. You will be working with third parties to design, build and implement solutions to deliver finance based projects on time and within budget. This opportunity requires you to be involved with the end-to-end process; identifying areas of improvements, suggesting solutions and driving efficiencies.
This team is vital to the continued success of the business, delivering technical innovation and solutions to aid growth and identify better ways of achieving outcomes. Reporting to the Head of Finance Systems, you will be heavily involved with the key decision making process, ensuring the business is able to provide the best technology solutions globally.
The position will suit a confident, inquisitive and system savvy professional with a desire to support the business with the continued development of the systems and processes in a fast paced, high growth global retail operation.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Responsible for the finance systems across the business including NetSuite;
- Review the daily and weekly integrity of the data;
- Consult on the analysis of an application and support users to determine system needs and requirements;
- Define system requirements and review impact of system releases on existing systems, including process mapping and design;

- Continually identify improvement opportunities and recommendations;
- Develop relationships with key stakeholders to ensure the service delivery exceeds their expectations;

- Support the Project Manager with any large scale projects.
This role requires a driven Systems Analyst with a strong understanding of process design and mapping, knowledge of ERP and cloud based systems and the capacity to gather business intelligence and deliver improvements.
