About You
  • Proven track record as a Project Lead / Project Manager on finance ERP implementations (ideally cloud solutions).
  • Strong knowledge of finance processes (GL, AP, AR, reporting, controls).
  • Hands on experience with Sage Intacct (or other SAGE ERP products) strongly preferred.
  • Excellent project management skills with the ability to manage multiple stakeholders and external vendors.
  • Strong communicator with the ability to translate technical solutions into business impact.
  • Contract ready: able to hit the ground running with minimal onboarding.
