JOB OBJECTIVES As an Accounting Systems Analyst, you will play a key role in implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and shaping how accounting data flows across the organization. You’ll work hands-on with financials, GL, AP, AR, cash, and reporting, while also driving system improvements, automation, and data integrity. This is not a pure IT role.

• Reconcile revenue flows (including integrations like Salesforce to banking) and ensure accuracy within the ERP.
• Build and refine financial reports, templates, and dashboards that Finance will actually use.
• Document accounting workflows and SOPs to create consistency and audit readiness.
  
  

Post-Implementation (Where You Add Real Value)

• Serve as a day-to-day Finance Systems Administrator for Business Central.
• Maintain data integrity across subledgers, reconciliations, and integrations.
• Identify inefficiencies in accounting processes and implement smarter workflows within the system.
• Troubleshoot system issues and coordinate fixes with external consultants or the global ERP team.
• Develop tools, trackers, and SOPs to improve operational efficiency across Finance.
• Train and support non-finance teams (HR, Fundraising, Programs) on how financial data flows through the system
