Application Manager Finance Reporting & Analytics

APPLICATION AND SERVICE OWNERSHIP
You'll own selected Finance reporting and analytics applications across their entire lifecycle and make sure they run reliably, stably and in a user-friendly way. You'll organise operational support, help shape effective service concepts and keep a close eye on performance to spot room for improvement. When incidents arise, you'll drive their resolution and manage escalations where needed. The underlying data and the related business processes will guide your work.
SOLUTION DESIGN AND DELIVERY
You'll translate Finance reporting requirements into scalable technical solutions and further develop our global analytics landscape. Together with Architecture, Data and Finance teams, you'll design the right approach and steer external consultants and implementation partners. You'll also take part in testing, documentation, deployment and releases, and contribute to roadmaps and technology decisions.
PROJECT AND STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT
You'll oversee delivery scope, timelines, quality and external resources, and lead smaller projects and workstreams in line with our company standards. By identifying risks early, you'll help define suitable mitigation measures. You'll build strong relationships with stakeholders, technical teams and external partners, and keep everyone clearly informed about progress, decisions and dependencies.
DATA AND PROCESS UNDERSTANDING
You'll act as the bridge between business requirements, data models and technical implementation. With in-depth knowledge of Finance reporting, controlling and consolidation processes, you'll enable the effective use of SAP source-system data products and other enterprise sources. You'll also promote consistent, reusable and well-governed analytics solutions.
