SAP Finance Systems Advisor

A rapidly growing international oil and gas client with significant capital to deploy are searching for an SAP Technical Advisor to join their finance function in London. This is a role which will combine project work and systems maintenance where you’ll be an effective business partner to internal and external parties, advising on financial and controlling areas across existing and newly acquired businesses with a particular focus on month end close. We are seeking to speak with SAP certified advisors with in-depth knowledge of FI/CO modules who have worked within the energy / capex intensive industries or for a major consultancy.

Focusing on resource rich international operating locations, the company is seeking to maximise the use of its SAP infrastructure, connecting head office with subsidiary units and you will become part of a small, high quality function. Responsibilities will include but not be limited to:

-        Defining a data migration strategy to support M&A activity including follow on testing and go-live

-        Being heavily involved in the corporate project to implement SAP at head office and subsequently being the providing subject matter expertise in related SAP FI/CO and JVA business processes

-        Delivering training to and developing relationships, acting as a go-to person for non-technical staff in particular with operating business units

-        Implementing, enhancing and supporting additional software requirements

We are interested in candidates with around 4 years SAP experience, particularly in financial controlling and maintenance, who knows financial systems inside out. Sector experience in Oil and Gas or a similarly capital-intensive sector would be advantageous, though equally appealing would be an individual from a major consultancy who would be excited by the opportunity to work for a smaller but rapidly growing company. As the company are expanding so quickly this person will be able to take on more responsibility for projects as the business acquire more subsidiaries, providing future opportunities for career development in finance and technology based in London or indeed overseas.
