Overview

• Contract duration: Duration being confirmed
• Start date: 15 November 2026
• Location: Remote (for consultants based in Bulgaria)
• Language: English
• Day rate: EUR 450 a day

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end solution design for the Redwood Finance Automation implementation, from design through build, testing, and go-live.
• Partner with finance process owners to understand how the close runs today.
• Determine what to automate, and in what order.
• Produce solution design documentation that an engineering team can build.
• Make judgment calls to ensure what was designed meets what is required in practice during delivery.
• Lead current-state analysis of record-to-report processes with controllers and finance operations leads.
• Define target automation design across:
  • close
  • reconciliation
  • journals
  • intercompany
• Decide where standard Redwood capability is sufficient and where extensions are justified.
• Create integration design with SAP S/4HANA or ECC and other source systems.
• Design balance sheet auto-certification rules, controls, approvals, and audit trail so the automated close stands up to audit.
• Guide engineering during build by reviewing delivered work against the solution design.
• Define test strategy and acceptance criteria with finance users.
• Develop a roadmap for subsequent waves of automation after initial processes go live.

Requirements

• Solution design ownership on at least one live Redwood Finance Automation implementation (RunMyFinance), including running design workshops and writing the design yourself.
• 8 or more years of experience in finance transformation, finance systems, or record-to-report process design.
• Working understanding of SAP FI/CO (or the Oracle equivalent), including how close and reconciliation data flows between the ERP and the automation layer.
• Experience running workshops with finance users and converting workshop outputs into a design that can be built and tested.
• Ability to work with senior finance stakeholders and hold a design position when challenged.

Preferred Qualifications

• Hands-on build experience on Redwood, to understand what engineering will implement based on your design.
• Experience with BlackLine, Trintech, or SAP Advanced Financial Closing.
• Finance qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or similar).
• Experience in financial services or another regulated industry, including work under SOX or similar audit controls.
