The Group Systems Accountant is the single accountable owner of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance across Markmonitor Inc. and the Com Laude Group. The role sits at the intersection of financial control and ERP ownership: it exists to protect the integrity of the Group's financial system of record, to be the internal authority the finance organization turns to as external implementation support demobilizes, and to convert the design decisions made during the D365 program into a stable, well-governed, continuously improving system estate.

• Act as the Group's internal Subject Matter Expert (SME) for D365 Finance, General Ledger, AP, AR, Revenue Recognition, Tax, Banking and Financial Reporting, across all in-scope legal entities.
• Own and maintain the shared chart of accounts, dimension structure, intercompany framework and legal entity configuration as new Com Laude entities and Phase 2 scope are onboarded.
• Manage day-to-day configuration change, issue triage and root-cause resolution, escalating only where a change requires formal Change Control under the Invasystems SoW/MSA or a third-party support agreement.
• Own security roles, segregation-of-duties design, and user provisioning in partnership with the D365 Administrator function.

• Maintain the integrity of multi-entity, multi-currency consolidation into the Group's USD reporting currency, including intercompany elimination and the trial-balance feeds from outsourced entities (Spain, Japan, China).
• Own the monthly close calendar within D365, working with US and UK finance teams and outsourced accounting providers to ensure a controlled, auditable close.
• Partner with Financial Reporting/FP&A on Management Reporter, Power BI dashboards and statutory reporting templates, ensuring system outputs reconcile to signed accounts.
• Own reconciliation between legacy systems (Workday, Xero, retained read-only for audit and historical reference) and D365 as the system of record.

• Own ASC 606 revenue recognition configuration for Markmonitor entities within D365, including deferred revenue schedules and contract templates.
• Act as the finance lead for any future in-sourcing of Com Laude revenue recognition into D365, working with the CFO and outsourced accounting provider on feasibility and design.
• Own tax configuration and controls across US sales tax (Vertex), UK VAT/HMRC Making Tax Digital, and EU VAT, and act as the finance-side point of contact for tax advisors and auditors on system matters.

• Own steady-state governance of integrations: bank feeds (BAI2 US / MT940 UK), the MM/CLG billing portal, the tax add-on, and the consolidation feed from outsourced entities.
• Act as finance business owner for data migration continuity, validating that opening balances, comparative history and master data brought over from Workday and Xero remain accurate as further entities and Phase 2 scope are onboarded.
• Support Rollout 2 (Com Laude Group, 7 active entities) design, UAT and go-live, and lead subsequent onboarding of any additional legal entities.
