You can be based anywhere in the UK; Reading is just a marker point. Clients are UK wide and there will be travel to client sites. Salary to £55k plus car allowance and benefits.

Strong experience of implementing accounting / finance software solutions is essential. Formal accounting qualifications such as CIMA, ACCA or FCCA are desirable or if you are a QBE accountant, qualified or part-qualified, this would also be beneficial.

They work with ERP and Field Service software solutions, but this role is primarily based on the accounting and finance modules. As a Finance Implementation Consultant here, you will be based from home with regular days on client site and some nights away.

You will gather and document customer requirements, conduct workshops, configure the solution to best meet these needs, test, and manage the software implementation from cradle to grave, hand hold and train the end users and manage expectations through the process. You will be analytical, well organised, self-motivated and have excellent interpersonal and client facing skills.

This is a solid, busy role with a company that has a remarkably low staff turnover; you will work with a great team of Finance and ERP Implementation Consultants who knowledge share and work very well as a team.

Ideally you will be a qualified or part qualified accountant (or QBE) with strong functional experience of software implementations of accounting / finance software.
