Finance Transformation Analyst

We are partnering with a large, nationally recognised not-for-profit organisation to appoint a Finance Transformation Analyst into a growing and strategically important division.

This is an excellent opportunity for a finance professional who has developed strong data analytics and systems capability and wants to play a hands-on role in a significant transformation program.

The organisation has recently implemented new operational and finance systems and is now focused on improving the flow, accuracy and integrity of data between the two environments.

The Role

You'll initially undertake a detailed review of historical financial and operational data, identifying discrepancies, investigating root causes and supporting remediation. From there, you'll play a key role in improving ongoing data flows, reporting and processes between the operational and finance systems.

Key responsibilities include:

• Analysing and reconciling large datasets
• Investigating discrepancies and data integrity issues
• Understanding how operational activity flows through to the General Ledger
• Identifying root causes and driving issues through to resolution
• Using tools such as Excel, Power Query, SQL or similar to interrogate and manipulate data
• Improving reconciliation processes, workflows and controls
• Working closely with Finance, Operations and project stakeholders
• Contributing to broader finance transformation initiatives

About You

We're looking for someone who sits at the intersection of Finance, Data and Systems. You may have started your career in accounting or finance before developing strong capability across data analytics, systems or transformation.

You'll ideally have:

• A strong accounting/finance foundation and understanding of the GL
• Experience working with large datasets and complex reconciliations
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Advanced Excel and experience with Power Query, SQL or similar
• Strong attention to detail and an investigative mindset
• A genuine interest in systems, data and process improvement
• The ability to take ownership of issues and drive them through to resolution

Why this role?

This isn't a traditional Finance Analyst or Commercial Analyst position. It's an opportunity to work at the intersection of finance, data and systems, with genuine ownership of a significant transformation agenda.

You'll have the opportunity to work closely with senior stakeholders, solve complex problems and develop your experience across finance transformation and data analytics.
