We are seeking a senior Business Systems Analyst to support a large-scale finance transformation and ERP modernisation programme within a highly complex enterprise environment.

This is not a traditional BA or note-taking role. The client needs someone who can lead stakeholder discussions, challenge assumptions, drive clarity across ambiguity, and produce high-quality, developer-ready requirements across a fragmented finance systems landscape.

The role is heavily Finance-focused, with some exposure to HR systems and processes. Candidates must have strong experience across core finance functions including GL, AP, AR, close, and reporting.

Tip:
The following are indicative focus areas: 22+ in-house and legacy finance applications (primary focus), SAP ECC finance environment, SaaS platforms including Workday and Black Line, ongoing multi-year ERP replacement programme.

• 22+ in-house and legacy finance applications (primary focus)
• SAP ECC finance environment
• SaaS platforms including Workday and Black Line
• Ongoing multi-year ERP replacement programme

• Lead workshops and requirement sessions with Finance stakeholders
• Translate business needs into process flows, system behaviour, data requirements, and integration logic
• Analyse impacts across legacy applications, SAP ECC, SaaS platforms, and future ERP solutions
• Drive future-state process design, standardisation, and simplification
• Produce clear user stories and acceptance criteria for development teams
• Support UAT, defect triage, and production alignment

• Strong Finance systems and business process expertise
• Proven ability to operate across complex, multi-system environments
• Strong understanding of integrations, data flows, and cross-system dependencies
• Experience supporting ERP implementation or transformation programmes
• Comfortable working with undocumented or homegrown systems
• Confident stakeholder leadership and facilitation skills

• SAP ECC finance module experience
• Exposure to Workday, Black Line, or similar SaaS platforms
• HR systems/process exposure alongside Finance
• Data mapping and migration experience

Success in this role means reducing ambiguity, improving requirement quality, and helping move ERP transformation initiatives forward with clarity and momentum.
