SUMMARY

A well-established property services business is investing in automation across its finance and operations functions, and needs someone to lead the charge.

You'll work closely with exco — identifying where automation delivers real value, then following through with developers and vendors to get solutions built and adopted. Strategy and delivery in one role, not one or the other.

POSITION INFO

The role: Translate finance and operational pain points into a prioritised automation plan, backed by clear business cases Get hands-on with developers and outsourced IT partners - specs, testing, delivery, adoption Build reporting and dashboard tools that management actually uses Keep controls intact as processes get automated - this isn't automation for its own sake Report back on what's actually working: time saved, errors reduced, cost taken out What you bring: 5-10 years in business analysis or finance systems, with automation delivered, not just proposed A finance/accounting foundation (degree or articles background) paired with systems fluency Comfortable translating between finance and technical teams - and confident enough to push back when needed Process mapping know-how, solid data skills (SQL/Excel/Power BI), and exposure to RPA or workflow tools A plus: experience with SAP or similar large-scale platforms, and prior work alongside outsourced IT vendors.
