• Demonstrated experience performing finance-focused business process analysis and fit-gap assessments across budgeting, procurement, inventory, forecasting, and financial operations.
• Proven ability to develop strategic recommendations that address functional gaps through process optimization, governance improvements, or tooling alternatives rather than system configuration.
• Experience working within complex application environments that include core ERP modules, third-party systems, and legacy or “shadow IT” solutions.
• Strong facilitation, documentation, and stakeholder engagement skills, including leading workshops and producing executive-ready analysis and recommendations.
• Ability to assess and clearly communicate risks, impacts, and long-term costs associated with maintaining legacy finance processes or deferring recommended changes.
• Experience supporting ERP modernization efforts aligned to defined business drivers, guiding principles, and industry best practices.
• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field.

Responsibilities

• Serve as a trusted, client-facing advisor supporting ERP modernization initiatives across Finance, Budget, Procurement, Inventory, and Forecasting functions.
• Lead finance-focused business process fit-gap analyses to evaluate alignment between current-state workflows and modern ERP solution capabilities, identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, controls, and usability.
• Facilitate workshops with project teams and business stakeholders to document complex current-state processes across core ERP modules, third-party applications, and culturally embedded “shadow IT” systems.
• Develop actionable recommendations to address functional gaps through business process changes, governance improvements, or tooling alternatives rather than system customization.
• Advise clients on managing unique or non-standard finance processes when solution functionality could not fully address requirements, including documenting impacts, risks, and mitigation strategies.
• Support future-state finance process design aligned to ERP modernization vision, business drivers, and guiding principles, ensuring consistency with industry standards and best practices.
• Identify opportunities for agile, iterative deployment approaches to enable early wins and incremental adoption across finance and budgeting functions.
