Job Description:

The Group Project Accountant plays a dual role within the Finance function: coordinating, overseeing and getting involved in the detail of current finance projects to ensure delivery is aligned to agreed business needs, controls, and priorities; and helping to lead and deliver finance improvement initiatives, designing and embedding improved end-to-end finance processes enabled by Workday Financials. The role acts as the bridge between Finance, the Finance Systems team, and the wider business, ensuring that both near-term project activity and longer-term transformation are governed, prioritized, and delivered based on clear business value.

Job Responsibility:

  • Coordinate current finance projects and enhancements, ensuring alignment to agreed business objectives
  • Own, drive and personally deliver finance projects and changes
  • Coordinate project activity across Finance, Finance Systems, and third parties
  • Ensure project outputs are consistent with Group process standards, appropriately controlled and auditable, and fit for operation post-implementation
  • Maintain a central view of finance change activity, dependencies, and impacts
  • Support prioritization of work through agreed governance forums
  • Deliver tangible improvements such as reduced manual journals and reconciliations, reduction in use of Excel to calculate or prepare journals, faster month-end close, improved straight-through processing, stronger preventative controls embedded in process design
  • Build and track benefits cases and conduct post-implementation reviews
  • Translate business and process needs into effective Workday Financials solutions
  • Provide functional input into Workday configuration
  • Support Workday releases and enhancements
  • Act as a trusted partner to senior Finance stakeholders
  • Lead workshops and design sessions
  • Support change adoption through clear communication, training materials, and operational handover

Requirements:

  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent)
  • Strong hands-on experience across core finance processes (P2P, O2C, R2R, Fixed Assets, Intercompany)
  • Practical experience of Workday Financials in a finance environment (highly desirable)
  • Proven track record of delivering business process re-engineering within Finance, with clear examples of outcomes achieved
  • Experience working in close partnership with Finance Systems teams across the full change lifecycle
  • Strong understanding of finance controls, audit requirements, and governance
  • Balanced mindset: Comfortable managing near-term delivery while helping to shape future-state transformation
  • Process-led thinker: Sees systems as enablers, not drivers
  • Willing to get into the detail and ‘get hands dirty’ on projects
  • Commercially focused: Prioritizes work based on business value and risk
  • Collaborative and credible: Builds trust across Finance, IT, and the wider business
  • Pragmatic and outcomes-driven: Focuses on sustainable improvement, not theoretical design
  • Structured and disciplined: High standards of documentation, governance, and follow-through

Nice to have:

Practical experience of Workday Financials in a finance environment

  • Competitive salary
  • Range of benefits
  • Office-first culture
