• Ensure Data Integrity to ensure data is accurate, reliable and secure at all times.
• Troubleshoot & resolve issues within the Finance team.
• Maintaining, configuring, and supporting all finance systems, ensuring agility to adapt to changing business needs
• Working closely with IT to lead or support financial systems upgrades, testing and implementation.

Requirements

• VBA experience/knowledge
• Power BI experience/knowledge beneficial
• Possess a strong understanding of financial systems and reporting structures
• Experience supporting finance teams
