Additional Notes:
Our client is seeking a Business Analyst - Financial Applications for their team. Reporting to the Manager, Financial Applications, the Business Analyst – Financial Applications plays a key role in supporting and optimizing financial systems. This position is ideal for a proactive, detail-oriented professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys troubleshooting, problem-solving, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. The Business Analyst will work hands-on with the ERP and other financial applications to resolve issues, improve processes, and contribute to continuous enhancement initiatives that strengthen the organization’s financial systems and operations.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the primary escalation point for issues related to ERP and financial applications beyond standard support processes.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve day-to-day system incidents and stakeholder requests across financial applications.
  • Work collaboratively with Business and Systems Analysts to maintain and enhance ERP and financial systems through configuration, incident management, and feature development.
  • Analyze business processes and system workflows to identify inefficiencies, gaps, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Build deep, hands-on expertise in ERP and financial applications to investigate issues, determine root causes, and support effective resolutions.

  • Hands-on experience with multiple ERP systems and a proven track record of improving financial processes or workflows.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently identify root causes and propose creative, sustainable solutions.
  • Strong influencing skills and the ability to communicate complex technical concepts in a clear, accessible way to non-technical stakeholders.
  • Experience supporting audits, compliance requirements, or cross-functional system implementations.
  • A background in Finance or Accounting that enhances the candidate’s ability to understand and interpret business impacts within financial systems.
