Job Description

Head of Finance Transformation

A large multinational company with complex global operations is building a dedicated Finance Technology & Transformation capability to accelerate a multi-year modernization of its core finance systems. This newly created Head of Finance Transformation role will lead enterprise-wide implementations and ongoing optimization across the finance systems stack supporting planning/forecasting, consolidation/close, reporting, and workforce planning.

This is a highly visible role with direct exposure to senior finance leadership and close partnership with IT. The roadmap is active and well-supported, with multiple implementations and enhancements already underway. The environment is fast-moving and demanding, with strong resources and teams around the role.

What You’ll Own

  • Lead the end-to-end delivery of an enterprise finance systems roadmap across EPM/PPM, ERP modernization, and workforce planning, including integration to auxiliary platforms and upstream/downstream data flows.
  • Drive day-2 excellence: post-launch stabilization, enhancements, release governance, controls, and adoption.
  • Own systems that enable global close and consolidation, planning and forecasting, and management reporting at scale.
  • Establish and enforce finance master data governance (definitions, hierarchies, rules, change control) across global entities.
  • Partner closely with finance and IT senior stakeholders to align system capabilities with business strategy and operating model.
  • Support business growth initiatives including new entity setup, acquisitions/divestitures, and ongoing scalability requirements.
  • Drive process automation and continuous improvement to improve cycle times, usability, and data confidence.
  • Build a durable change model: training strategy, communications, and enablement aligned to system releases.
  • Manage external implementation partners/consultants to ensure timeline, quality, and value delivery.

Leadership Scope

  • Lead a high-performing team across finance systems delivery and optimization, with a mix of internal talent and external partners.
  • Operate as a cross-functional transformation leader with executive-level influence and accountability.

The Challenge (what to expect)

  • Multiple workstreams running in parallel with real deadlines and high expectations.
  • Complex global data and process dependencies; governance and integration discipline will matter.
  • Balancing program delivery with operational stability, user adoption, and continuous improvement.

What Success Looks Like (12–18 months)

  • Key systems launches delivered on time with strong stakeholder confidence.
  • Post-go-live environments stabilized quickly with a clear governance and enhancement cadence.
  • Measurable improvements in close/planning cycle time, data consistency, and user adoption.
  • A scalable finance systems operating model that can absorb growth and complexity.

Ideal Background

  • 15+ years in progressive finance leadership roles with significant ownership of finance systems and finance transformation.
  • Proven track record leading large-company EPM implementations (planning/forecasting plus consolidation/close) and integrating EPM with auxiliary systems (e.g., workforce planning, data platforms, MDM, reporting layers).
  • Manufacturing environment experience is highly valued (cost structures, operational complexity, multi-entity/global considerations).
  • Comfortable leading in a matrix and influencing executives; strong communication and executive presence.
  • Experience building and developing high-performing teams; effective partner and vendor manager.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration (or related).
  • Must be able to work hybrid onsite (Greater Boston area) at least 3 days per week.
  • No employment visa sponsorship available for this role.
