Business Analyst Finance Process and Systems

Super Group International is seeking a Business Analyst Finance Process and Systems to own how finance processes run end-to-end and how they integrate into company systems. The role involves working across the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central ERP and the TM1/EPM Enterprise Performance Management system. The focus is on mapping both the business process as understood by users and the underlying system process.

This is a process-first role that requires an individual to drive standardisation, analyse calculations and allocations, and specify integrations from a business standpoint. The successful candidate will create functional business requirement documents, design controls into processes, and build business cases for change. They will also plan and coordinate user acceptance testing and measure process performance post-go-live.

• Map end-to-end finance processes and the systems that run them, across record to report, procure to pay, accounts payable, travel, intercompany, tax, fixed assets, leases, close and consolidation, FP&A, etc.
• Map the system process underneath each one: which system does what, where the hand-offs sit, what every integration carries, and where the control points fall.
• Keep the two views joined up, so a business process change can be traced to the system steps it touches and a system change can be traced back to the people it affects.
• Find where the same process runs differently across entities, regions or teams without a good reason, and make the case for a single standard way of working.
• Design target processes that are standard by default and deliberate about their exceptions, with local statutory requirements handled as controlled variations rather than as separate processes.
• Analyse the high level calculation and allocation rules held in our EPM platform that generate journals posted into the ERP, including cost allocations, splits and waterfalls, accruals and provisions.
• Document those rules in business terms: what the rule does, the driver behind it, who owns it, the basis it uses, how it is approved and what evidence it leaves.
• Specify integrations from a business standpoint. What data moves, at what level of detail, on what trigger, who owns it on each side, what happens when it fails.
• Agree and document data contracts and process ownership, so that no team builds against an assumption another team has not signed up to.
• Turn all of this into a functional business requirement document the delivery teams can build technical documents against, with traceability running from the process step to the requirement.
• Design controls into the process rather than bolting them on afterwards: approval points, segregation of duties, reconciliations, and the evidence a SOX tester will ask for.
• Run workshops with process owners across Finance, Tax, Treasury, Procurement and the operating businesses, and hold the line when standardisation gets uncomfortable.
• Build the case for change: what the process costs today, the problems it creates, the realistic options, and a recommendation with cost and time set out honestly.
• Plan and coordinate user acceptance testing against the process rather than the screen, testing the whole flow through to the journal it produces.
• Measure the process after go-live and feed what you learn into the next change.

• At least three years’ experience as a business or process analyst working on finance processes and the systems that run them (required)
• Real understanding of finance end to end, including how a transaction becomes a journal, a balance and a reported number, across record to report, procure to pay, close, consolidation, budgeting and forecasting (required)
• Proven process mapping and modelling ability at both business and system level, using a recognised notation, and the discipline to keep those maps current (required)
• Ability to pick apart a calculation or allocation rule that posts to the ledger and explain in plain language what it does, why, and whether the result stands up (required)
• Experience specifying integrations between finance systems from a business standpoint: data, level of detail, triggers, ownership, failure handling and reconciliation (required)
• Experience standardising a process across multiple entities, countries or business units, and dealing with the resistance that follows (required)
• Requirements discipline: user stories, acceptance criteria, functional specifications and traceability from process to test (required)
• Strong communication skills. You will spend your day translating between finance people and technical people, and both sides need to recognise their own process in what you write (required)
• The confidence to challenge constructively. We need someone who tests whether the request solves the real problem, not someone who only writes down what they are told (required)
• Advanced Excel and enough comfort with data to check for yourself whether what you have been told is true (required)
• Experience planning and running user acceptance testing with business users (required)
• Comfortable working within change management and control requirements in a regulated, audited or listed environment (required)
• Strong attention to detail, with a focus on data quality, accuracy and control (required)
• Ability to manage several concurrent workstreams and deliver high-quality outputs on time and within scope (required)
• Ability to adapt quickly to changing environments and priorities, maintaining effectiveness in dynamic situations (required)
• Degree or diploma in accounting, finance, information systems, engineering or a related discipline. Relevant experience will also be considered. (required)
• Professional business analysis or process improvement certification (nice-to-have)
• Familiarity with a structured process framework, such as the APQC Process Classification Framework (nice-to-have)
• Experience of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, or a comparable ERP, in a multi-entity and multi-currency environment (nice-to-have)
• Exposure to an EPM platform such as IBM Planning Analytics or TM1, CCH Tagetik, OneStream, Anaplan or Oracle EPM Cloud, particularly where it posts back into the ERP (nice-to-have)
• Understanding of intercompany, allocations, and consolidation mechanics (nice-to-have)
• Understanding of IFRS group reporting and statutory reporting in a listed group (nice-to-have)
• Exposure to SOX, IT general controls and the evidence auditors expect from a finance process change (nice-to-have)
• SQL, or exposure to Power BI and modern cloud data platforms such as Microsoft Fabric (nice-to-have)
• Experience working in agile delivery, using Jira, or similar (nice-to-have)
• Experience of data migration and master data remediation on a live finance system (nice-to-have)
• Exposure to online gaming or sports betting and the regulatory requirements that come with it. (nice-to-have)

• Supergrowth is real here. Our learning and development programmes give you the tools, training and opportunities to level up fast.
• Your progress matters. Our Performance tool ensures you get meaningful feedback to support your development and superdrive your career.
