Job Summary

We are seeking two experienced professionals to support a large-scale Salesforce reimplementation with downstream integration to Workday Financials. These roles require an equal combination of strong Salesforce and Business Analyst capabilities alongside deep, hands-on Finance and accounting expertise. The ideal candidates can navigate multiple systems confidently, understand complex Salesforce and Workday-driven business processes, translate Finance needs into requirements and Jira stories, and clearly articulate how upstream Salesforce transactions impact downstream Finance and accounting outcomes. Candidates must bring demonstrated hands-on testing experience and the ability to operate independently under aggressive timelines, including Q4 blackout and year-end periods.


Responsibilities

  • Provide hands-on Finance testing support, bringing strong revenue and accounting expertise to execute and validate complex scenarios spanning Revenue Accounting, Accounts Receivable, billing and invoicing, Controllership, General Ledger, and FP&A

  • Execute end-to-end transaction testing beginning in Salesforce and flowing through integrations into Workday Financials, validating both business process and downstream accounting outcomes

  • Test complex revenue, order, billing, and customer scenarios and validate resulting invoices, AR balances, revenue treatment, journal entries, GL postings, and financial reporting impacts

  • Develop Finance-focused test scenarios covering real-world transactions, accounting requirements, high-risk use cases, and cross-functional dependencies

  • Independently identify when system or accounting results do not align with expected outcomes and coordinate investigation and resolution

  • Partner with Finance and technology stakeholders to translate Finance needs into clear business requirements, Jira stories, acceptance criteria, and end-to-end test scenarios

  • Align requirements and stories across multiple Finance teams including Revenue, FP&A, Controllership, and AR, ensuring complete end-to-end coverage

  • Own requirements traceability and change management, including documenting changes, assessing impacts, and maintaining alignment through design, build, testing, and release

  • Identify gaps, dependencies, and conflicting requirements across workstreams and drive them to resolution

  • Support Jira backlog grooming, story refinement, release planning, and cross-functional working sessions

  • Lead and coordinate Finance UAT scrum ceremonies, driving testing progress, priorities, blockers, defects, and actions

  • Develop and maintain comprehensive test scripts, scenarios, expected results, requirements traceability, and testing evidence

  • Coordinate testing across multiple Finance teams, testers, systems, and workstreams

  • Track execution, requirements coverage, defects, retesting, and business sign-offs through Jira

  • Coordinate test-data staging across Salesforce, Workday, and integrated systems

  • Drive cross-functional defect triage and coordinate resolution across business and technical teams

  • Support regression, integration, end-to-end, and release-readiness testing while managing multiple competing priorities and aggressive timelines


Skills

  • Strong hands-on Salesforce experience, including the ability to navigate objects, fields, workflows, transaction flows, and upstream and downstream dependencies

  • Deep Finance and accounting expertise, particularly with revenue-related transactions, and the ability to independently test and validate financial outcomes

  • Ability to execute transactions end-to-end and validate resulting revenue treatment, invoices, AR balances, journal entries, debits and credits, and GL impacts

  • Strong BA capabilities across requirements gathering, Jira story writing, acceptance criteria, process analysis, requirements traceability, and change management

  • Demonstrated experience coordinating UAT across multiple teams, including test-script development, UAT scrums, execution tracking, defect management, retesting, and sign-off

  • Strong Jira experience for requirements management, story coordination, testing tracking, and defect management

  • Highly organized, driven, and independent, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams, stakeholders, and competing priorities simultaneously

  • Comfortable operating under tight release, quarter-end, and year-end timelines

  • Strong cross-functional communication and coordination skills across Finance, Salesforce and technology, and program teams


Experience

  • Direct, hands-on experience supporting complex Workday Financials implementations, reimplementations, or large-scale transformation programs

  • Demonstrated experience working with Finance business processes, data, transaction flows, and downstream system dependencies in a Salesforce-integrated environment

  • Hands-on experience testing scenarios spanning Revenue Accounting, AR, billing and invoicing, GL, Controllership, and financial reporting

  • Experience with Workday Financials strongly preferred; experience with another major financial ERP will be considered


This is a rare opportunity to play a central, high-impact role in a complex, enterprise-scale transformation at the intersection of Salesforce, Workday Financials, and Finance operations. You will work alongside senior Finance and technology stakeholders, influence critical design and testing decisions, and leave a lasting mark on how a major organization manages its end-to-end financial lifecycle β€” all within a fast-paced, high-visibility program where your expertise will be recognized and relied upon from day one.
