SAP Functional Analyst • Record to Report555 Steeprock Drive, North York, Ontario. Full time, on site.
ABOUT THE PROGRAMMEWe are consolidating several businesses onto one SAP S/4HANA platform. Three entities are live. Further entities go live in 2027 and 2028.
Alongside SAP we are delivering analytics on SAP Business Data Cloud, demand and supply planning, manufacturing execution, ecommerce, and spend automation. The SAP platform is the spine that all of it connects to.
This is not a maintenance role. This is a live program with published readiness gates and a business that is changing how it works at the same time. We are building an internal organization that owns the system rather than renting one.

PARTNERS WITHThe Finance business process owner
WHY THIS ROLE EXISTSA programme of this scale only works if the finance side of the platform is owned by someone accountable for it end to end. The design decisions made here shape how the business records, reconciles and reports its numbers, and they have to hold up well beyond go-live. This seat owns that work through delivery and carries it into run afterwards.
WHAT YOU OWN- FI and CO configuration: general ledger, payables, receivables, fixed assets, intercompany, banking
- The chart of accounts design through to business sign-off
- Entity consolidation and group reporting in the system
- Period close design, proven in a rehearsal rather than on the first live month
- The finance reconciliation evidence for each of the three mock loads
- Finance reporting: designing and building the reports and dashboards the business actually decides from
- Data integrity in the finance data: the quality measures, and the scorecards that show whether we are holding them
- Documentation of process, configuration and requirements, kept current rather than written once
- Day to day support of finance in SAP, with changes going through the change control board rather than around it
- Acting as the finance subject matter expert for SAP across the business
YOUR FIRST SIX MONTHS- Take the chart of accounts to sign-off
- Design and prove entity consolidation
- Run the finance test pass, then hand it to the business process owner, then to the people who close the books
- Own reconciliation on all three mock loads, with the business signing rather than IT
- Build and rehearse the close calendar
- Deliver the finance reporting set, and train the people who will use it
TRAINING AND HANDOVER- Run training sessions and workshops for the finance users, delivered by you rather than by a vendor
- Write and maintain the user guides, training material and system documentation
- Leave finance able to run the system without you standing behind them
WHAT YOU NEED TO HAVE DONE BEFORE- At least five years in an SAP finance functional or business analyst role
- S/4HANA finance configuration across at least two full lifecycles, at least one as the analyst
- General ledger, payables, receivables, fixed assets, intercompany, period close
- Consolidation across multiple legal entities
- Chart of accounts design or redesign
- Has stood beside a controller during cutover balance validation and made the numbers tie
- Data extraction, mapping, conversion and validation, at volume
- Able to take a business requirement and turn it into a specification someone can build from
- A degree in accounting, finance, commerce, business or information technology. CPA preferred
HELPFUL, NOT ESSENTIAL- Manufacturing costing: product costing, material ledger, variance analysis
- Canadian and United States tax
- SAP Group Reporting or Central Finance
- Financial planning and analysis
- Data migration reconciliation at volume
HOW YOU WORK- You can sit with a controller or an AP clerk, take a problem described in their language, and come back with something that works and an explanation they understand
- You explain a design decision and its trade-off without reaching for jargon
- You are comfortable holding several priorities at once and saying which one moved
- You work with the business as a partner rather than a ticket queue
