Implementation Consultant, Accounting & Salesforce

Home based role for an Implementation Consultant with strong accounting software / finance experience and knowledge of Salesforce, to cross train to FinancialForce, the Salesforce finance solution. Home based anywhere in the UK - salary to £45k + £15k bonus + car allowance. It is vital that you have hands on experience with SalesForce, as the FinancialForce solution sits on SalesForce and it is a lot easier to learn the product it if you have been involved with SalesForce before.

All their Finance Implementation Consultants are earning the £15k bonus, so there is no reason why you shouldn't too. For customers who want a finance solution, this consultancy sells FinancialForce which is the SalesForce finance solution originally based on CODA, which has since been redeveloped as a very strong finance solution sold globally to compete with the largest accounting solutions like Sage X3, Dynamics AX, JDE, SunSystems, SAP, etc. It is a robust cloud solution and it sells incredibly well. FinancialForce as a company, employs over 700 staff.

This well-established software consulting firm has over 15 years in SalesForce consulting and implementation; they have about 25 staff and everyone is home based; people live across the UK from Ireland, to Shropshire, Birmingham, Cambridge, to Watford, London, Poole and many other areas.

They need someone with Salesforce experience, who has implemented accounting & finance software. This could be Sage 200, Coda, BrightPearl, PS Financials, OpenAccounts, SunSystems, SAP Business One, D365 Business Central, Dynamics AX or GP, NetSuite, JDE, Sage Intacct etc., and who understands charts of accounts, knows how to talk coherently to accounting departments, from CFO's to accounts clerks, and is client facing.

Training on FinancialForce can be done through the SalesForce platform, and it is all free, you can become an administrator in 40 hours of self-learning and develop a strong skillset totally independently through self-study. You will have a strong finance implementation background and will have worked on projects for companies with a turnover of between £5m and £250m and be used to dealing with an accounts team of 2 to 20 staff. You are great on requirements, develop strong relationships with stakeholders, and have a passion for cloud solutions.

You will visit your clients for the kick-off meeting and for training but beyond that most of your work will be done from home as FinancialForce is a true cloud solution. So realistically 2-3 days a month on site is probably about it. Obviously you might need to spend a lot more time on site sometimes as this is the nature of being an Implementation Consultant, but most of the work is done from home.

Why is this an awesome role?

• FinancialForce is a superb piece of software
• It sits on SalesForce which is a stunning platform
• The training here is great
• The projects are all a decent size, so you can get stuck in
• Super people with a genuine "home working culture" where they encourage teamwork and team spirit, even from a remote workplace

FinancialForce is a skill that is in massive demand globally, and because you can work remotely as it is a cloud solution, the salary rates are excellent, and so it's a great addition to your CV.
