Finance and ERP depth

You bring real finance design expertise on a major enterprise finance platform, whether SAP S/4HANA Finance, Oracle Cloud ERP or comparable, and across the finance spine an agent has to operate inside: the general ledger and the subledgers, period-end close and consolidation, intercompany, management and statutory reporting, finance master data, and controls by design. You own the question an agentic design turns on: what the agent should do with the journal entry. You can hold the conversation with a CFO or a controller about what the numbers mean, and what would have to be true for them to trust a machine to produce them. The platform matters less than the judgement you bring.

Shaping and winning the work

You originate the work as well as deliver it. You build relationships with finance and technology leaders, spot where AI changes the economics of a finance process, and turn that into a proposition a client will buy. You run the client workshops, build and give the demonstrations, stand up the proofs of concept, and shape the deal behind them, making the value case in CFO language rather than technology language. You form a point of view, publish and speak it, and use it to open doors.

Leading the delivery

You run the work in front of the client self-sufficiently, from discovery and architecture through build, testing and deployment, and into the run. You act as the finance design authority, holding the solution to finance's requirements for control, reconciliation and auditability while directing the functional, technical, data and change workstreams around you. You lead senior client forums and design authorities, make the calls that keep a design coherent under pressure, and coach and develop the people who deliver it.

How we work

We're increasingly an AI-first delivery team, bringing agentic tooling and orchestration into how we design, analyse and deliver, with our people owning the judgement and the outcome. You'll work that way and raise the bar for how the team around you does, with the reusable patterns and accelerators that make it repeatable beyond you.

Who You Are

You bring a senior finance transformation career, typically 10+ years. The most recent two or more have been spent in AI, with delivered work behind you, not experiments. Most of all, you work the seams: what an ERP vendor's embedded AI can do, what the data layer can do, what frontier models can do, and which of them belongs where in a finance design. You have made those calls and can defend them. You're a strong client-facing consultant who can hold a room of CFOs, controllers, architects and engineers at once, and explain a technical call to all of them without losing any. You bring commercial instinct and sound judgement under pressure, and you develop the people around you.

You understand how a finance function joins up end to end: where one process hands to the next, where a module boundary is crossed, where an agent's action in one place lands in another. That integration view is what makes an agentic design hold across the whole function.

The two essentials are finance depth and the ability to create demand as well as meet it. On the AI side we want someone already on this path: agentic finance work taken into production, or credibly on its way there, with the evaluation and controls to show it holds up.

Things that set strong candidates apart: a track record delivering finance transformation end to end; named platform AI experience on either side of the market — SAP Business AI, Joule, SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) or AI Foundation, or Oracle Fusion AI & Agents and Oracle Integration Cloud; working fluency in the engineering underneath, enough to direct and challenge a build without needing to be the one writing it; published or presented points of view on AI in finance; relevant platform, cloud or AI certifications; and a professional accounting qualification such as ACA, or equivalent industry experience.

If you have most of this and the drive to build the rest, we want to hear from you. Tell us what you'd bring.
