Create job alert

We're partnering with a well known professional services firm that's on the lookout for a Senior Finance System Analyst to join their growing, hybrid team. It's a role that's become available due to internal movement and is crucial as the firm transitions to a new system (Elite 3E), so they're keen to get someone on board ASAP.

What you'll be doing:

Your main focus will be providing technical support, development, and configuration for the firm's finance systems. You'll take ownership of incidents raised via the Helpdesk, assist in rolling out new systems, prepare technical documentation, and work closely with internal teams to prioritise and solve problems.

You'll also:

Provide 2nd line support for practice management systems.
Escalate issues to suppliers where necessary.
Use your technical expertise to develop practical solutions for finance teams.
Build effective working relationships across the business to support their needs.

What we're looking for:

Experience supporting financial systems, ideally within a legal or professional services environment.
Experience with Elite 3E would be a bonus.
Strong SQL query skills and solid reporting experience.
Good numerical skills and ability to understand business processes.
Exposure to Emburse Expenses or Invoices or IntApp would be helpful.
Clear communication skills and a collaborative, proactive approach.If you've worked with practice management systems and are looking to take ownership in a senior role, this will be a strong fit. A legal sector background would be beneficial but isn't essential.

The team & flexibility:

You'll be joining a well established finance systems team of around 30 people, reporting to the Finance Systems Manager. The firm actively promotes internal progression, and while step ups to management may take time, there's always a path for growth within business services here.

The team operates a flexible working policy. If you're local to one of their offices, they'd love you in 2 or 3 days per week, but if you're further afield and a great match, fully remote is an option.

Why apply?:

You'll be joining a supportive, well established team during an exciting period of system transition, with the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere in the UK. The role comes with a salary of up to £55k, an excellent holiday allowance, strong pension, and up to 30% bonus potential, along with real opportunities for internal progression within the business.

If you're a finance systems specialist looking for your next move and want to work somewhere that values internal development while offering flexibility, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now or contact Lewis at Cathcart Technology for an informal chat about this opportunity
