Finance Systems Consultant

Your new company
A dynamic organisation is embarking on a major operational improvement programme and is now seeking an experienced Delivery Lead to support the next phase of transformation. With all early-stage groundwork completed, this is an exciting opportunity to join a high performing project team and play a pivotal role in delivering meaningful change across key finance operations.
Your new role
You will join a programme focused on insourcing Payroll, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and Treasury services. The initial process mapping, triage and future state design work has already been completed, and the project is now moving firmly into delivery.
Working alongside project managers, an existing delivery lead, and internal subject matter experts, you will help drive readiness activities and ensure a seamless transition into the new operating model. Your responsibilities will include supporting parallel run execution, coordinating cutover, engaging operational teams, addressing behavioural and compliance gaps, and ensuring key controls are understood and embedded.
This is a hands on role suited to someone who thrives in complex, early stage transformation environments and enjoys stabilising processes to lay the foundations for long term improvement.
What you'll need to succeed
You will bring:

• Demonstrated experience delivering operational change within transformation or improvement programmes
• A strong track record of resolving process issues and stabilising workflows
• Confident stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to work closely with Payroll and Finance operational teams
• Strong control awareness and a pragmatic risk mindset
• Ability to work autonomously and operate effectively in challenging, ambiguous or "messy" environments
• A finance background or understanding of finance processes (desirable but not essential)

• Salary of up to £500 per day
• Flexible hybrid
• Minimum 12 month contract (likely to be extended)
