About the Role

Own the business and functional operation of the financial planning platform across North America, ensuring accurate financial outputs, reliable planning cycles, and effective user support. This role combines financial analysis with platform expertise to support the planned transition from SAC to Anaplan and later to SAP E1P to P22, while maintaining functional ownership.

Responsibilities

Own the functional and system coordination of NAM planning processes for monthly forecasts, budgets, and multi-year outlooks.
Support project managers and FPMs to validate project and business gross profit, free cash flow, warranty, loss provisions, and balance sheet logic.
Partner with SAC support, CPMs and finance managers to resolve discrepancies and validation errors before submission deadlines.
Serve as the functional subject matter expert for SAC Planning, including data actions, calculated measures, account logic, mappings, stories, and performance.
Stabilize ProjectDash and SAC Planning integration through cross-system reconciliation, validation-threshold review, and clarification of business rules.
Translate finance needs into specifications and acceptance criteria, challenging proposed technical solutions where financial logic or outputs are incorrect.
Own issue intake, the functional backlog, business-impact assessment, prioritization recommendations, and follow-through to resolution.
Support investigation of GP and FCF discrepancies, warranty creation and usage, project issues, balance sheet misstatements, and revenue or cost misalignment across systems.
Support root-cause sessions with IT, business team, application support, and offshore teams, distinguishing financial-rule, process, source-data, mapping, and application causes.
Support validation of fixes in test environments and confirm correct production results and business acceptance before closure.
Maintain a common action and decision log with named owners, dependencies, due dates, and escalation routes.
Facilitate agreement on accounting requirements, project logic, planning processes, source data, and expected system behavior.
Coordinate delivery and communicate status while finance owners retain accounting approvals and technical teams retain deployment and integration authority.
Own the training calendar, user onboarding, workshops, office hours, and individual CPM and finance-user coaching.
Maintain practical process instructions, FAQs, reference materials, and a searchable knowledge base.
Communicate planning deadlines, process changes, releases, outages, known issues, workarounds, and required user actions.
Prepare clear leadership summaries explaining financial exposure, operational risks, trade-offs, and decisions required.
Standardize planning processes and project reporting across the portfolio.
Contribute to SAC optimization, planning-form redesign, predictive analytics, and appropriate AI-enabled finance improvements.
Work with Digital Transformation and Data teams to improve usability and insight delivery through relevant reporting, data, and automation tools.
Own the changeover calendar and runbook from preparation through post-changeover support.
Collect and reconcile approved master-data, metadata, mapping, and account, entity, and alternate-hierarchy changes.
Execute authorized SAC changes and coordinate upstream SAP, interface, automation, and technical changes with the responsible teams.
Coordinate metadata freezes and restarts, cleanup of unused members, approved archival or backup, and preservation of historical reporting.
Manage current-year to prior-year hierarchy treatment where permitted by close requirements, respecting elimination-specific restrictions.
Coordinate fiscal-year updates in planning forms, dashboards, data actions, HANA views, and year-specific scripts or calculations.
Validate SAP-to-planning comparisons, final actuals, planning seeding, mappings, financial rollups, allocation rules, and divisional validation rules.
Coordinate access reviews, data locks, release or transport approvals, and recovery arrangements.
Obtain the relevant business and technical acceptance, retain completion evidence, communicate reopening and user actions, and provide training and post-changeover support.
Document financial rules, data definitions, source-to-target mappings, interfaces, reconciliations, controls, and reporting requirements for reuse across transitions.
Represent NAM finance in requirements, design reviews, data preparation, testing, user acceptance, training, and cutover preparation for Anaplan.
Assess the interim E1P environment and the later P22 impact on the planning platform, interfaces, mappings, and reconciliations.
Maintain current planning operations while delivering agreed project work.
Escalate capacity or priority conflicts to FPM and the relevant project owners.

Requirements

Typically 5–7 years of relevant experience in finance systems, SAC Planning, SAP, and large-scale EPM platforms, with strong financial judgment.
Solid understanding of forecasting, budgeting, cash flow, project financial mechanics, and financial reconciliation.
Hands-on SAC Planning functional support, including investigation of data actions, calculated measures, account logic, mappings, stories, and user issues.
Experience governing master data, hierarchies, mappings, and metadata, including annual financial-year or planning changeover.
Ability to trace discrepancies across financial rules, processes, source data, and system behavior and quantify their business impact.
Experience translating requirements into clear specifications, coordinating changes, testing results, and maintaining approval and closure evidence.
Proven training, facilitation, written communication, and stakeholder-management skills across finance and IT in a matrix organization.
