Do you have the skills and technical experience to support our finance systems team to maintain and develop Unit 4 ERP?  If so, this could be the role for you.

About us 

At Macmillan you'll find talented people working together to do whatever it takes to support people living with cancer. We're going all out to find even better ways to help even more people who need our support. Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions.

About the role

This role will be part of the finance system team acting as a finance system business expert, administering, supporting and developing Unit 4 ERP. The role will also be critical in the execution of key Finance Projects, including the migration to Unit 4’s Cloud and the implementation of Unit 4s Financial Planning and Analysis Tool.

The role will support finance users and the wider organisation to get the most out of Unit 4 ERP by ensuring the integrity of accounting data, compliance with finance controls, robust workflow management and report maintenance and development.

The role will also liaise with our technology department to resolve issues, assist with system integrations and support the finance-technology strategy.

Please note that this is a systems role working within our finance team and not a role as a financial accountant.

We are open to a conversation about hybrid working as the majority of the team work remotely, with face-to-face meetings at least quarterly, normally in our London office.

Knowledge and ability to support, maintain and develop Unit 4 ERP
Understanding and the expertise in finance system implementation, migration to Cloud and upgrades.
