Systems Accountant – Oxford Area£50,000 – £70,000 (salary guide set by Fletcher George) | Flexible Working | Bonus | Excellent Benefits
Fletcher George is working with an innovative and growing organisation within the technology and financial services space, looking to appoint a Systems Accountant to join its specialist team.
This role represents a genuine move away from a traditional finance position. It will appeal to someone who has already moved into a systems and analytical role and enjoys using data and technology to improve processes and drive efficiencies.
This is an excellent opportunity for a finance professional who enjoys understanding how businesses operate and translating financial processes into practical solutions whilst working closely with systems, data and business teams. Previous experience working as a Systems Accountant, Business Analyst or Financial Analyst is preferred.
The Role
Working closely with internal teams and clients you will:
- Gather, analyse and challenge financial and operational requirements
- Support business analysis activity to understand processes and improve system functionality
- Design finance-related processes including posting logic, reporting structures and reconciliation processes
- Work with financial and operational data to identify trends and support decision making
- Support data analysis and reporting initiatives which improve visibility and business performance
- Act as a bridge between finance and technical teams
- Contribute to wider systems and process improvement projects
About You
You may be ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified or part-qualified and bring relevant systems and data/business analytical practical experience.
You are likely to bring:
- Experience within finance systems, ERP projects, business analysis or data analysis environments
- A background in accounting or finance, with a move towards systems, reporting, transformation or analytical work
- Strong accounting knowledge, commercial awareness and analytical thinking
- Experience interpreting financial and operational data to support decision-making
- Strong stakeholder communication skills, with the ability to build relationships across finance, systems, technical and operational teams
- Confidence acting as the link between finance, systems and technical colleagues
- An understanding of financial processes, reporting structures, reconciliations and system workflows
- Experience within FinTech or the wider financial services sector would be highly beneficial, although this is not essential
- An interest in AI and emerging technologies, particularly where they can improve reporting, analysis and business processes
This is not a software development role and does not require coding, although you should be comfortable understanding how data is structured, including schemas. A good understanding of APIs and how systems communicate and exchange data between platforms would also be useful.
What’s on Offer
- Flexible working arrangements
- Bonus potential
- Private healthcare and pension
- Car parking available
- Career development and progression opportunities
- A varied role with exposure to interesting projects
- Supportive team culture and a modern working environment
This opportunity would suit someone who enjoys working where finance, systems, technology and business analysis come together and who is looking to continue developing within a modern and evolving environment.
The role is commutable by car along the M40 corridor from Oxford, Reading, High Wycombe, Beaconsfield and Aylesbury.
