Prospectus is delighted to partner with a prominent health charity in the search for their new Finance System Implementation Manager, a key leadership role responsible for delivering an end-to-end system implementation project. This position, offered on a 12-month fixed-term contract, provides flexibility with hybrid working arrangements. The successful candidate will be required to work from the office at least two days per week, with additional attendance for key meetings and events as necessary.

The Finance System Implementation Manager will oversee the implementation of Sun, Proactis, and EPM systems while managing the migration from the existing platform, Business Central. Working closely with the Head of Financial Accounts and collaborating with the finance team and other stakeholders, the post holder will ensure the new system meets the charity’s financial and operational requirements. This is a highly collaborative role that demands a strategic approach to align the implementation with the organisation’s long-term goals.

A significant aspect of the role involves partnering with the Financial Analyst to configure and tailor the new systems to meet ongoing organisational needs. The post holder will ensure that all specifications during the design phase are comprehensive and aligned with business objectives, with processes mapped effectively to support key functions.
