Descripción del empleo

Are you looking for an opportunity to grow in a global finance transformation environment? We are looking for a motivated finance professional to join our Central Finance Operations team as Central Finance Data Governance Specialist.

In this role, you will support the governance, maintenance and quality of finance master data used in SAP Central Finance. You will help ensure accurate replication of financial information from different source ERPs into CFIN, while learning how finance processes, systems, data and reporting connect in a global organization.

This is a finance role with a strong systems and data component. It is a great opportunity for someone with a Finance or Accounting background who is curious about process improvement, ERP systems, master data and digital transformation. If you are willing to learn, ask questions, take ownership and follow topics through until they are closed, this is your opportunity.

You will join a global team that works closely with Finance, IT, SAP COE, project teams, ERP super users and external partners. We value people who are proactive, responsible, reliable, detail-oriented and who run their work as if they own the process.

What you will do

• Support the maintenance of finance master data in SAP MDG-F and SAP Central Finance.
• Review new or changing finance master data from source ERPs and assess whether updates are required in MDG-F.
• Analyze business requests and ensure alignment with global finance standards and the Common Information Model.
• Enter, monitor and follow up on master data requests, ensuring those progress through the correct approval and resolution process.
• Coordinate with regional and global approvers to ensure timely closure of requests.

• Support finance reporting requirements by coordinating with the Reporting & Analytics team.
• Support finance master data needs related to new legal entities, trading partners, reporting requirements and acquisitions.

What will make you successful

We are looking for someone who is not only interested in finance, but also willing to understand how finance processes connect with systems, data and business decisions.

You will be successful in this role if you take ownership of your responsibilities, follow up until topics are closed and communicate clearly when something is blocked or unclear.

We value people who are proactive, reliable, responsible, curious, and accountable. We want someone who does not just complete tasks, but understands the purpose behind them and treats the process as if it were their own.
