The Role
As a SAP Group Reporting Analyst, you'll play a critical role in MAG's Finance Transformation Programme as we migrate from SAP ECC to S/4HANA Private Cloud.
Working within our Technology team, you'll act as the internal subject matter expert for SAP Group Reporting, partnering with Finance, Technology, Solution Architects and implementation partners to help shape and deliver a modern, scalable finance technology landscape.
You'll be embedded within the transformation programme from the earliest design stages through to go-live and post-implementation stabilisation, ensuring solutions are aligned to business requirements, SAP best practice and Clean Core principles. This is not a role where you'll simply review the work of others. You'll be the organisation's go-to expert for Group Reporting, providing challenge, insight and direction throughout the programme lifecycle.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys combining deep SAP expertise with business analysis, stakeholder engagement and problem solving within a large-scale transformation environment.
Your Responsibilities Will Include:
- Acting as the business-owned lead for the SAP Group Reporting workstream throughout the Finance Transformation Programme.
- Participating in fit-to-standard workshops and ensuring solutions reflect MAG's business and reporting requirements.

- Supporting go-live, hypercare and post-implementation stabilisation activities.
What Will Make You Successful in the Role?

We're looking for someone with:
- Hands-on experience configuring SAP S/4HANA Group Reporting.
- Strong understanding of consolidation processes, including eliminations, currency translation, minority interests and group reporting structures.
- Experience of at least two full SAP implementation lifecycles from discovery through to go-live.
- Strong knowledge of the Universal Journal and consolidation data flows within S/4HANA.
- Experience supporting period-end and year-end close processes within an SAP environment.
- Strong business and systems analysis skills, with the ability to gather requirements and translate them into effective solutions.

- Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to communicate effectively with both Finance and Technology audiences.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.
- Experience documenting business processes, requirements and solution designs.
