Senior Finance Systems Analyst

This role sits within Finance, reporting to the Head of Finance Transformation. It provides experienced, hands-on Finance Systems analyst capability and works closely with the Finance Systems Controller, providing cover for defined Finance Systems activities where appropriate.

The role supports BAU stability and controlled change across the Finance Systems estate by undertaking practical Finance-side systems work across incident support, helpdesk activity, system administration, master data, access, recertification, control evidence, operational monitoring, testing, documentation, user enablement, Change Assessment and Routing (L1 / L2 Triage) support and Finance-side change-control lifecycle evidence.

Working closely with the Finance Systems Controller, the role helps keep Finance Systems activity visible, evidenced, coordinated and supportable across BAU, Finance's Change Assessment and Routing model (L1 / L2 Triage), and Finance-side change-control lifecycle. It is responsible for defined practical Finance-side systems activities and routines, while escalating risks, gaps, dependencies and control issues where broader stewardship, ownership, sponsorship, prioritisation or senior judgement is required.

The role supports the operation and evidence of Finance-side systems controls across BAU and change. Accountability for business processes, business controls and operational decisions sits with the relevant line owner, process owner or control owner in accordance with RACI.

This is a hands-on, technical Finance Systems role requiring strong Finance grounding, practical systems capability, attention to detail, sound judgement and the discipline to protect BAU stability while supporting controlled improvement, Change Assessment and Routing (L1 / L2 Triage) activity and Finance-side change-control lifecycle disciplines.
