• Review and validate calculations, posting logic, and consolidation outputs to ensure financial accuracy and audit readiness.
• Contribute to test plans and functional documentation, and participate in solution design reviews.
• Bring in market insights, competitive benchmarks, and client feedback to refine feature prioritization.

Requirements:

• 7+ years of experience in group financial consolidation, either in a corporate setting or as a consultant.
• Deep knowledge of USGAAP and IFRS, understanding of regulatory reporting and compliance requirements.
• Hands-on exposure to consolidation software such as Board, SAP BPC, Oracle FCCS, HFM, Tagetik, OneStream, etc.
• Familiarity with the architecture of financial systems, including chart of accounts design, multi-currency logic, and integration principles.
• Strong communication skills to work cross-functionally between product, engineering, and finance teams.

• Experience as a functional lead in finance software development projects.
• Educational background in Accounting, Finance, or Information Systems.
• Knowledge of agile methodologies is a plus.
