Amach is an industry‑leading technology driven company with headquarters located in Dublin and remote teams in UK and Europe.

Our blended teams of local and nearshore talent are optimised to deliver high quality and collaborative solutions.

Founded in 2013, Amach was created to solve a specific problem in aviation: too much complexity, too little usable intelligence. We help airlines modernise their operating model using cloud, data and Al-delivered by teams with deep aviation domain expertise. Our goal is to maximise airlines' operational efficiency by optimising resource use, reduce costs and increase customer experience and satisfaction.

We are seeking an experienced Finance Transformation Programme Manager to lead the next phase of a large‑scale finance transformation journey. This is a senior programme delivery role responsible for translating strategic objectives into a structured, well‑governed roadmap of initiatives that deliver measurable business value across finance, technology, data and process improvement.

Working at the intersection of programme delivery and organisational change, you will drive the successful execution of multiple transformation workstreams, ensuring that new processes, systems, and ways of working are effectively adopted across the finance function. This role requires a strong blend of finance expertise, transformation leadership, stakeholder management, and change management capability.

This is an initial 18 month contract role and operates on a hybrid working model requiring 4 days per week onsite in Dublin.

• Own and maintain the Finance Transformation roadmap, translating strategic priorities into a sequenced and governed programme of initiatives
• Lead end‑to‑end delivery of complex finance transformation workstreams, from business case development through design, implementation, deployment, and benefits realisation
• Establish and manage programme governance, including programme plans, RAID logs, milestone tracking, benefits tracking, and executive reporting
• Manage programme budgets, resource allocation, dependencies, risks, and delivery timelines
• Drive process improvement initiatives across the finance function, identifying opportunities for optimisation, automation, and efficiency gains
• Evaluate emerging technologies and build business cases for inclusion within the transformation roadmap
• Lead change management activities including stakeholder analysis, impact assessments, communications, training, and adoption strategies
• Build and maintain strong stakeholder relationships across finance leadership, executive teams, technology functions, and wider business units
• Facilitate steering committees, workshops, prioritisation forums, and key decision‑making sessions
• Ensure alignment across multiple programme workstreams, proactively resolving cross‑functional risks and blockers
• Define, track and report on programme benefits, ensuring clear linkage between transformation initiatives and financial outcomes
• Champion the adoption of finance technologies, data‑driven decision making, and continuous improvement practices across the organisation
• Work closely with finance, technology, HR, data and other business functions to ensure successful delivery of cross‑functional transformation initiatives
• Support the design and evolution of finance operating models, organisational structures, processes, systems and data capabilities
• Lead finance process mapping, future‑state design and target operating model development to support ongoing transformation objectives

Required Experience:

• Strong finance transformation background with deep understanding of end‑to‑end finance processes, finance operating models, month‑end activities, governance and controls
• Comfortable operating within finance functions and speaking the language of finance
• Proven experience delivering large‑scale, multi‑workstream finance transformation programmes from business case through to benefits realisation
• Strong programme management experience, ideally supported by qualifications such as Prince2, PMI, APM, or equivalent
• Demonstrated experience leading structured change management initiatives within large transformation programmes
• Experience delivering continuous improvement and process optimisation projects within finance environments
• Experience supporting or leading finance‑focused SAP transformation programmes, ideally with responsibility for post‑implementation optimisation, process redesign, adoption and benefits realisation
• Experience working across multiple business workstreams including Finance, Technology, HR, Data & Analytics, and other business functions
• Strong understanding of programme governance, benefits realisation, risk management and executive reporting
• Experience managing senior stakeholders and executive leadership teams
• Exposure to process mining tools such as Celonis, SAP Signavio, or similar
• Excellent communication, facilitation, analytical, and problem‑solving skills
• Strong understanding of business process improvement, systems implementation, and operational controls
• Experience mapping business processes, systems landscapes, data flows and target operating models
• Strong understanding of enterprise finance platforms, planning systems, reporting solutions and associated data ecosystems
• Tableau and/or PowerBI certified

• Experience working with SAP, enterprise planning and analytics platforms, and finance reporting technologies
• Exposure to AI‑enabled finance, analytics, automation, or decision‑support capabilities within finance transformation programmes
• Experience helping finance functions become more data‑driven through the adoption of modern data and analytics platforms
