Talent Manager - Forge Talent, Relationships Not Transactions
We’re looking for a hands-on finance professional to support a key systems integration project within a dynamic and fast-paced environment. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys getting into the detail, solving problems, and acting as the bridge between finance and technology. You'll play a crucial part in ensuring data integrity and reporting continuity during a critical period of systems change.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Supporting the consolidation of trial balances across two finance systems, ensuring accuracy and alignment
* Performing regular balance sheet reconciliations, with a particular focus on intercompany transactions and discrepancies
* Posting journals and working with the finance team to assist with month-end close activities, reporting outputs, and data extraction
* Playing an active role in User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and go-live support, helping to troubleshoot, validate data, and ensure smooth adoption
* Working collaboratively with internal teams and external consultants to challenge assumptions and ensure system processes are robust and futureproof
* Supporting the finance team with ad hoc analysis and operational finance tasks as needed, ensuring BAU delivery isn’t disrupted by the change
What We’re Looking For:
* Desirable: Previous experience using COINS or a similar ERP system within construction, engineering or contracting environments
* Desirable: Experience managing trial balances across multiple systems, or during a finance system migration or integration project
* A hands-on finance professional who is comfortable with transactional detail, but also capable of identifying wider process risks and improvement areas
* Someone who takes ownership, is naturally curious, and isn’t afraid to ask difficult questions to ensure accuracy and accountability
* Strong Excel skills and a methodical approach to data handling, reconciliation, and reporting
What You Need to Know:
This is not a traditional project manager role. It’s a hands-on finance role with a strong focus on systems, processes and data integrity.
If you enjoy working through complex problems, have a good grasp of how systems should work in a finance context, and want to be a key part of a transformation journey — we’d love to hear from you.
