Responsibilities:
  • Lead end-to-end GL journal entry and reconciliation process design from preparation through period-end close and audit trail.
  • Document current-state pain points across US and Canada and translate them into structured S/4HANA requirements.
  • Define a journal entry control framework including templates, validations, naming, and period lock definitions.
  • Design multi-level ERP approval workflows with routing, thresholds, escalation SLAs, and audit trail capture.
  • Establish selective posting controls, period management, and correction workflows.
  • Specify automated reconciliation for bank, subledger, and GL matching with exception routing and sign-offs.
  • Design recurring journal automation with schedules, annual recurrence, and auto-reversal logic.
  • Implement centralized document attachment models within S/4HANA.
  • Guide FI/GL configuration including document splitting, ledgers, posting periods, park/hold/post, validations, and close controls.
  • Design workflow-based approvals using SAP Business Workflow or Fiori apps with notifications and worklists.
  • Specify auto-journal generation from AP, AR, inventory, payroll, and expense systems.
  • Define payroll and expense integration interfaces and address FloQast integration or deprecation decisions.
  • Champion end-to-end audit trail design and period-end governance with calendars, locks, and SLA tracking.
  • Bridge Finance stakeholders and the SI team and train the Finance Workstream Lead on FI/GL capabilities.
  • Facilitate design workshops and run S/4HANA Fiori demos to validate fit with BPOs and SMEs.
  • Support UAT with scenarios for approvals, recurring journals, integrated uploads, tracker replacement, and audit completeness.
  • Support OCM and deliver role-based end-user training for GL personas across US and Canada.
  • Participate in program governance, manage cross-workstream dependencies, and escalate Finance risks.
  • Maintain traceability across requirements, specifications, configuration, integrations, and UAT outcomes.
  • Advise on close risk, cutover timing, parallel runs, and go-live sequencing.

Experience Requirements:
  • At least one full-cycle SAP S/4HANA implementation with primary ownership of the FI/GL workstream.
  • Hands-on FI configuration expertise including document splitting, ledgers, period controls, park/hold/post, recurring entries, and validation/substitution.
  • Proven SAP journal approval workflow design with thresholds, escalation, audit trail, and Fiori worklists.
  • Experience integrating subledgers and source systems to auto-generate GL journals.
  • Demonstrated replacement of manual trackers with ERP-native status reporting and audit trails.
  • Deep understanding of multi-entity, dual-country GL operations and period-end processes.
  • Experience eliminating duplicate approvals between close tools and ERP.
  • Working knowledge of close calendars, exception reporting, and locking mechanisms.
  • Familiarity with automated reconciliation and exception-driven workflows.
  • Understanding of audit trail, SOX, segregation of duties, and documentation management in SAP FI.
  • Knowledge of payroll and expense integration patterns, including migration from bulk uploads.
  • Experience in paired-lead delivery models with internal and SI teams.
  • Ability to produce functional specs, process flows, and UAT cases across US and Canadian close workflows.
  • Strong facilitation skills to drive cross-functional decisions and approval governance.
  • Success training workstream leads and users to build sustainable internal capability.
  • Preferred: SAP S/4HANA Finance certification.
  • Preferred: Experience with FloQast, BlackLine, or similar close tools and integration decisions.
  • Preferred: Migration experience from QAD, Oracle, or similar to S/4HANA for GL.
  • Preferred: SAP Concur or payroll integration experience to SAP FI.
  • Preferred: Experience with Accenture ADVANCE or comparable SI methodology and multi-workstream ERP Finance programs.

Education Requirements:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field required
  • CPA, MBA, or advanced degree preferred
  • SAP S/4HANA Finance certification (nice to have)
