Position: Finance Systems \& Reporting Analyst (Contract -- 6 Months)
A large-scale financial enterprise is seeking a detail-oriented professional to support an initiative focused on aligning internal financial data structures with external reporting frameworks. This short-term engagement will play a pivotal role in streamlining the existing General Ledger (GL) configuration as part of a broader systems modernization strategy.
Role Overview:

Your insights will directly inform the transition strategy from legacy systems to an integrated ERP/GL platform.
What You'll Do:
- Conduct deep-dive analyses of account hierarchies and assess how entries move through the ledger system.
- Compare internal GL architecture with external reporting outputs under different accounting standards.
- Map financial reporting logic to underlying data structures and identify areas for improvement.
- Identify inconsistencies or gaps in reporting alignment and recommend appropriate adjustments.
- Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders including finance operations, external reporting teams, and technical leads.
- Assist in the documentation and design of restructured financial data models, ensuring scalability and accuracy.
- Prepare mapping documentation, reconciliation logs, and data impact assessments.
- Utilize Excel extensively (pivot tables, lookups, etc.) for large dataset analysis and ledger reconciliation.
Required Skills \& Experience:
- Strong experience with financial data mapping, account hierarchy structuring, or reporting logic in large organizations.
- Solid understanding of IFRS and US GAAP standards.
- Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel for data analysis tasks.
- Familiarity with ERP environments (e.g., SAP S4/HANA) is highly beneficial.
- Previous involvement in GL or chart-of-accounts redesign initiatives.
- Proven analytical capabilities with a high level of attention to detail.
- Ability to translate technical financial data into actionable recommendations.
- Effective written and verbal communication skills.
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, collaborative environment with minimal supervision.
Bonus Points For:
- Experience supporting reporting transformations in regulated or financial institutions.
- Exposure to change management practices in enterprise finance settings.
