22 days ago
The Role
We are seeking a Systems Implementation Specialist to join the Finance team on a temporary basis to deliver the rollout of Planful - our chosen reporting and dashboarding tool for business KPIs and financial data. The project has started - our API with NetSuite is operational and initial financial data has been reconciled, but we now need to get this tool fully built and rolled out to the wider business.
You will be solely responsible for running the existing project on a day-to-day basis, including liaising with our external support consultants and executing all reporting requirements identified by the relevant internal teams. The role will be focused on building, testing and publishing reports in Planful to remove reliance on our current Excel-based suite and bring all reporting 'online'. This project will also lead the build of our business-critical budgeting and quarterly forecasting processes into Planful (from scratch!) and you will engage with the wider business on other opportunities to utilise the Planful platform to support general business development and growth.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead all activities in relation to the rollout of our Planful reporting tool
- Day-to-day project management including liaising with the external consultants (Verostone) and managing their input to the project
- Build and then deliver all reporting outputs within our Planful system and take a lead role in defining the process for BAU business reporting
- Lead the workstream on financial planning - collaborate with Finance, Operations and Development teams to redefine existing budget and forecast requirements and then identify and execute the best approach for taking this from current excel based files to a fully operational, automated Planful solution
- Support and initiate further project workstreams, including our complicated workforce planning processes and the onboarding of other APIs, such as our HR IS (Cezanne)
- Create and maintain technical documentation related to the Planful implementation and configuration
- Conduct system testing, troubleshooting, and performance optimisation
- Provide support and training to end-users including training the Finance team to be superusers
Requirements
Essential capabilities:
- Demonstrable experience in general systems implementation and configuration - Planful experience is a huge plus!
- Solid financial understanding to support report reconciliation processes, especially around budgeting and forecasting methodologies
- Effective communication and collaboration abilities including proven project management capabilities and the ability to translate stakeholder feedback into tangible actions and improvements
- Strong attention to detail
- Ability to work proactively with independence, whilst keeping key stakeholders suitably informed
Desired experience:
- Knowledge of the gaming industry
- Experience with Monday.com or similar project management tools
- Experience with NetSuite or similar ERPs
- Recognised accountancy qualification
