Functional Consultant (Finance Systems / ERP Implementation)

About the Role

Have you started your career in Finance, Accounting, Accounts Payable, Procurement, or Business Administration and later discovered that you enjoyed implementing financial systems more than running the processes themselves? Maybe you began as an Accountant, AP Analyst, Financial Analyst, Procurement Specialist, or Business Consultant before transitioning into ERP or SaaS implementations.

We are partnering with a global leader in cloud-based Spend Management and Accounts Payable Automation solutions trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide.

This is a customer-facing consulting role where you'll combine your finance knowledge, analytical thinking, and implementation experience to help organizations modernize the way they purchase, approve invoices, manage suppliers, and automate financial operations.

Contract type: Contractor, Full-Time, 100% Remote
