We're looking for aFinance Systems Lead to join the adventure as we continue to accelerate through a period of significant growth and complexity across our finance landscape.

Following a significant number of acquisitions in the last year, this role is critical in ensuring our finance system, NetSuite accurately reflects accounting reality across a multi entity, global group.

This is a finance led systems role, not a NetSuite administrator position. You'll sit within Finance, bringing strong technical accounting judgement to how systems are configured, integrated and used, ensuring postings, balances and data flows genuinely make sense.

Responsibilities
  • Leading the finance systems workstream for acquired businesses, including:
    • Chart of accounts mapping
    • Data migration
    • Entity and ledger setup
    • Go live support
  • Owning and supporting NetSuite and its integrations with tools such as Salesforce, Zuora, Tipalti, FloQast, Solution 7 and Workday.
  • Acting as the bridge between technical accounting requirements and NetSuite configuration, ensuring correct debit/credit logic, posting rules and controls.
  • Partnering with Technical Accounting, Financial Reporting and Operational Finance teams to support month end, troubleshooting and continuous improvement.
  • Working with IT, Data teams and external vendors on systems changes and enhancements.
  • Supporting testing, documentation, process improvement and user guidance.
  • Helping standardise processes across an increasingly complex global finance environment.
Skills and Experience
  • You are a qualified or technically strong accountant with hands on ownership of finance systems.
  • You've led NetSuite integrations, ideally as part of acquisitions or major organisational change.
  • You understand core accounting mechanics (GL, AR, AP, revenue) and can confidently challenge system setups that don't reflect accounting reality.
  • You're comfortable operating in a multi entity, international group.
  • You can translate accounting requirements into clear system and process decisions.
  • You're collaborative, pragmatic and confident working in fast changing environments.
