What is the role?
We are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic individual, who is interested in working for a growing and dynamic organisation.
The successful candidate will have strong system skills, understand how OneStream XF or similar financial consolidation systems operate and be skilled in manipulating data and reports. A key challenge of the role is an ability to quickly understand processes and design ways of improving or rationalising them.
This position within our Group Finance team will have two main areas of focus. Firstly, leading the OneStream rebuild project on behalf of DUAL, ensuring that the system delivers what the DUAL Group requires and that our Finance teams can use it with relative ease. Secondly, the role will support our global Finance teams by designing better processes to smooth and accelerate the month end close and forecasting cycles across DUAL. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with subsidiary finance teams (both UK and overseas), the Howden Group finance team, central departments and the Howden Group Shared Service Centre.
We are flexible on place of work, however, for this role the successful candidate will be expected to travel to the London office three times a week.
What will you be doing?
Act as the DUAL lead on the Howden Group project to rebuild OneStream XF, working closely with the heads of DUAL Group Finance and FP&A.
Undertake reconciliation processes for DUAL as we move data between cubes in OneStream and ultimately into a new application.
Support DUAL's subsidiary finance teams with reporting queries in OneStream. Demands for support are expected to be significant as we initially move to a new cube and then ultimately to a new application.
Improve and streamline month end close procedures to reduce the time it takes to close month end.
Improve budgeting and reporting processes within DUAL, such as recording and reporting of headcount data.
What are we looking for?
Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA) with at least 2 years PQE.
Experience of OneStream XF or a similar financial consolidation system.
An understanding of how data from other systems such as Workday can feed into OneStream.
Ability to manage conflicting demands and prioritise effectively.
Highly numerate and technically skilled in using accounting systems and manipulating data. Able to quickly comprehend and train others on systems and processes.
Thrives in a dynamic, entrepreneurial and changeable environment. Able to find pragmatic solutions when faced with time or information constraints.
