Project Accountant
This is an exciting opportunity for a Project Accountant to join an international, multi-million turnover architectural and urban design practice, based in Central London, on a permanent basis (hybrid working). This is a newly created role due to an increase in workload after business growth, after the business was acquired 2 years ago.
Reporting to the Commercial Director, you will be sitting in the commercial team of 6 people. This role has come about due to the business migrating systems from CMap to the system used by their parent company, Oracle. You will be integral in supporting the team transition onto the system and maintain business as usual during the transition.
Responsibilities will include:
- Supporting with the ERP transition from CMap to Oracle Fusion (OCI)
- Liaising with Oracle and the commercial teams to understand the requirements needed on the system and ensuring successful migration of the data
- Assisting with training of the wider commercial and project team on OCI
- Managing day to day project control work including monitoring project budgets and profitability
- Producing reports on Oracle OCI for the senior leadership team
- Updating project income and providing project invoice data to the finance teams
- Collating and inputting information into the system
Skill set required:
The successful candidate will have experience working in the professional services industry, preferably from an architectural, engineering or construction business. You will have experience working as a Project Accountant or Project Administrator where you have supported with project budgets and monitoring project income. Knowledge of Oracle is essential (Oracle Fusion or OCI). You will have excellent communication and the ability to be agile, in this project based role.
Whilst this role is focused on the Oracle project initially, it is a permanent opportunity to work in a project accounting role longer term for a business that looks to double in turnover in the next 4 years.
