- Strong process mapping, requirements gathering and stakeholder management skills.
- The ability to analyse complex information, identify opportunities and make evidence-based recommendations.
- Experience supporting business or Finance change initiatives from requirements through to implementation and adoption.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
- Experience working with Finance systems, ERP platforms or reporting tools would be advantageous.
- A CIMA, ACCA or equivalent qualification.
