Finance business process lead

Milton Keynes
Finance
Posted: 10 June
Offer description

What's the mission? WD-40 Company is rolling out a new ERP platform across its global markets, and we need a Finance domain expert to help us get it right. Not a button-pusher. Not a ticket-taker. A thinker who owns the Finance process stream — someone who can walk into a room with stakeholders from multiple countries, understand how they work, map the gap between where they are and where they need to be, and co-design a solution that actually sticks. This is a newly created dedicated role — WD-40 has reached the point in its global ERP journey where this function needs its own owner. You will have a thorough handover from the internal colleague who built this function and will ensure you successfully hit the ground running. You'll be embedded in a global implementation team, working alongside an Implementation Specialist as a true partner — you bring the Finance expertise, they bring the system architecture. Together, you'll shape how WD-40 handles its financial processes worldwide. This role offers the flexibility of working a hybrid schedule between your home and our office in Milton Keynes, UK (minimum 2 days in office per week). This role requires UK work authorization. Visa sponsorship is not available. What does the work actually look like? During implementation, your days will include: Leading and co-leading requirements workshops and fit-gap sessions with finance stakeholders across multiple countries and regions Translating country-specific business realities into clean, scalable process designs that hold up globally Partnering with the Implementation Specialist to build solutions that maximise standard functionality and minimise expensive customisation Owning the Finance process documentation — future-state design, functional specs, and SOPs Building and executing test scripts; reviewing results and driving fixes before go-live Creating training materials and leading sessions for the teams who will live in these processes every day Supporting hypercare through go-live — you're not dropping the baton at cutover Providing process enhancement design and escalation support for countries already live on the platform What does 'good' look like? The best candidate we've ever seen for this type of role didn't come in waving a software certification. They came in with deep finance knowledge, asked the sharpest questions in workshops, and left every session with stakeholders feeling heard and confident. They could spot a process gap before the system could, and they co-created solutions rather than just documenting requirements. That's the bar. Non-negotiables: 7–10 years of Finance process expertise across Record-to-Report (RTR) — GL, AP, AR, Fixed Assets, Cost Accounting, Financial Reporting, Budgeting, Cash Management, or similar Meaningful experience operating across multiple countries or regions — you understand that tax structures, regulatory requirements, and ways of doing business are not interchangeable, and you've navigated that complexity in practice Experience contributing to an ERP implementation (as a business analyst, process owner, SME, or similar) — you know what a fit-gap workshop is and how to run one Comfort working across time zones and with geographically dispersed stakeholder teams Ability to hold your ground in a room: you'll work with senior stakeholders who have strong opinions UK work authorisation (visa sponsorship is not available) Travel: Some international travel required during implementation phases Genuinely valued, not just filler: Experience with e-invoicing in European, Latin American, or Asian markets Familiarity with European VAT schemes and/or tax compliance in Brazil or Japan — both are active rollout markets Consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry background — relevant domain knowledge travels ERP experience in any major platform (D365, SAP, Oracle, or equivalent) — the tool matters less than your ability to translate business processes into system logic Comfort with EDI transaction flows You'll join WD-40 Company's global ERP implementation team — a group that takes implementation seriously and doesn't treat go-live as the finish line. Your hiring manager leads with high standards and gives her team real ownership. The UK office is collaborative and values some face time — you'll be expected to come in, especially early on, and will have the flexibility to work in a hybrid environment. WD-40 Company has 94% employee engagement globally. People who join tend to stay, and they tend to be proud of it. If you've ever worn a WD-40 jacket in public, you already know why. Do You Align With Our Values? Please, only consider employment with WD-40 Company if you feel as strongly about our values as we do: We live, breathe, and play by our values every day. Thank you for considering WD-40 Company in your career search! PositiveLastingMemories At WD-40 Company we foster a culture of inclusion where all individuals are recognized, valued, respected, and experience a sense of belonging. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to individual characteristics that make us unique such as our backgrounds, experiences, qualities, talents, traits, beliefs, and preferences.
