SAP Finance Functional Senior Manager

Within Accenture, the Finance Reinvention Partner helps clients improve financial performance around the CFO agenda — driving best-in-class performance, and sharper insight and benchmarking across the enterprise. In the UK and Ireland, our Finance RP practice brings together finance strategy and the platforms it runs on, including SAP, Oracle, Workday and EPM.

You'd help lead our Platforms transformation offering within the practice: a growing team delivering large-scale, business-led SAP finance transformations, and building AI into how we deliver. It's a place to shape deep SAP finance work and the offering around it, close to the CFO agenda it serves.

This is a lead role for an all-round SAP finance designer — someone who knows how every finance module fits together and can stand in front of a client as the senior finance design authority on a large SAP programme. You'll run SAP-enabled finance transformations self-sufficiently, own the finance design end to end, set the standard others build to, grow the accounts you work on, and shape how we take SAP finance transformation to market.

Accenture is a leading solutions and services company. Our strategy is to be the reinvention partner of choice for our clients and to lead in the safe, widespread adoption of AI. We bring together our people, deep industry expertise and technology to deliver end-to-end outcomes for clients — and Finance is one of seven Reinvention Partners at the centre of that. Finance RP brings the CFO agenda to life for clients — stronger performance, sharper insight, and better control.

"Our clients want a partner that can help them reinvent—boldly, continuously and at speed… while continuously building the most client-focused, AI-enabled great place to work for our people—our Reinventors." — Julie Sweet, Chair and CEO

You lead with authority and earn trust fast with senior finance and executive stakeholders. You run the room in a design workshop and bring people with you. You have the breadth to hold an entire SAP finance solution in your head and the critical thinking to keep it coherent under pressure. You have commercial instinct — an eye for where an account can grow and a firm hand on scope, commercials and contract realities. You're a genuine team player who develops the people around you, and you're known for sound, decisive calls under pressure.

Things that set strong candidates apart: all-round SAP finance design — knowing how the FI and CO modules work and fit together; a track record leading large-scale, multi-workstream SAP finance programmes end to end; SAP certification; and a professional finance or accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent industry experience).

You may not have done every part of this. If it's the shape of what you do, we'd like to talk.

Alongside a competitive salary and package (dependent on experience), you'll have an extensive benefits package including 30 days' holiday a year, private medical insurance, and 3 additional days' leave a year for charitable work of your choice.

Due to the security requirements of this role, you must be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC).
