About you
You have a proven foundation in ERP environments and you're eager to develop your career.

You understand that great systems support isn't just about fixing issues. It's about empowering colleagues, improving processes, and driving consistent adoption of best practice.
You'll have:
- Experience working with an ERP system, with genuine curiosity to develop specialist knowledge (Unit4 experience is a bonus, but your appetite to learn matters most).
- Effective analytical and troubleshooting skills, paired with experience using reporting tools such as Power BI, Excel, or ERP-native reporting modules to surface insight from finance data.
- A track record of building relationships and delivering excellent service or partnership, with a focus on improving how people experience and understand systems.
- Demonstrated grounding in accounting or finance processes, ideally gained in a large organisation.
- Proven ability to create clear guides, resources or training content that makes technical topics accessible.
- Confidence working independently while also thriving in collaborative environments, taking initiative and seeing things through.
What you\'ll focus on
- Being the primary contact for Unit4 and system queries, efficiently resolving issues and knowing when to escalate more complex challenges.
- Growing into a trusted Unit4 specialist by continuously expanding your knowledge and actively helping colleagues across the Society.
- Producing clear, helpful guides, FAQs and training resources that give colleagues the confidence to use our systems effectively.
- Supporting reporting improvements by helping to build, refine and maintain reports and dashboards that give colleagues the insight they need, using tools such as Excel, Power BI and our ERPs reporting modules.
- Running engagement and training sessions that boost understanding, capability and compliance with our finance systems.
- Championing good practice and confidently challenging off-system workarounds so colleagues get the full benefit of the functionality available to them.
- Supporting the integrity of our finance data and system structure, including the chart of accounts, role permissions and change logs, under the direction of the systems accountant.
- Working with the Systems Accountant on upgrades, testing and integration projects to ensure everything runs smoothly.
- Partnering with Finance colleagues and IT teams to monitor how systems perform, address issues quickly, and strengthen our single source of financial truth.
Can you see yourself as the systems expert who transforms how colleagues engage with finance technology? Are you ready to take ownership, learn continuously, and become the trusted partner who helps the Society gain maximum benefit from our systems? Can you bring both technical capability and genuine partnership to ensure our finance systems enable our mission to end the devastation of dementia?
