This role will immediately participate in the implementation of a newly selected OCR application. What you'll do Reporting into the Project Manager, you will work alongside other business analysts and consultants to deliver the Finance Transformation backlog. Be responsible for interviewing Finance Stakeholders to capture and document requirements for new systems and tools; this will include new business process flows written in business terminology. Ensure Finance is following best practices and processes are designed to be re-used where possible. You will work collaboratively with partners and stakeholders to identify ways to innovate and improve delivery and processes. Communicate with senior people within the organisation. You will need to gain and build business and stakeholder buy-in to the requirements gathering, As-Is and To-Be modelling processes. Align internal and external stakeholders of the benefits of new technology or strategies/requirements/processes. Control business analysis activities as required during the project lifecycle from project initiation through to closure. Support the UAT (e.g. test case creation & execution) and provide knowledge and expertise to support defect resolution. Support (and undertake where necessary) business change activities e.g. training. Conduct peer reviews and workshops for requirements definitions, As-Is and To-Be models to ensure quality, completeness and unambiguity. Develop user documentation. What you'll need 5+ years of experience as a Business Analyst with a focus on financial systems. Experience with system implementations or change management with Finance systems. End to end delivery of new systems and processes. In-depth understanding of financial processes. The ability to streamline processes across multiple business entities. Familiarity with financial software and systems (e.g., NetSuite, Accounts Payable Applications such as OCR and Invoice Matching software). Ability to be flexible and adapt to changes quickly. Ability to influence others in order to improve processes and application quality. Ability to work independently. Strong documentation management experience and skills. If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you. Are you ready for a career with us? We want to ensure you have all the tools and environment you need to unleash your potential. Need any specific accommodations? Whether you require specific accommodations or have a unique preference, let us know, and we'll do what we can to customise your interview process for comfort and maximum magic! Studies have shown that some groups of people, like women, are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. Whoever you are, if you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Across Octopus, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success.
