• Develop, document, and embed financial processes and controls to strengthen compliance and efficiency.
• Work closely with finance systems teams to ensure seamless integration into core ERP and reporting platforms.

Stakeholder Collaboration

• Act as the finance point of contact between Group, local entity teams, and external advisors.
• Provide regular progress updates and insights to senior management.
• Build strong relationships across departments to support knowledge transfer and post-integration success.

Transition to BAU

• Ensure smooth handover of ongoing finance responsibilities to local teams or Shared Services.
• Deliver training, guidance, and process documentation to embed new ways of working.
• Identify opportunities for process improvements beyond integration, driving long-term efficiency.

Key Requirements:

• Qualified Accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA or equivalent).
• Significant post-qualification experience, ideally within a multinational or group finance function.
• Track record of working on finance integration projects, M&A transactions, or finance transformations.
