We are looking for a SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) Business Analyst to help bridge the gap between our Finance teams and the technology and implementation teams delivering the programme. SAC will become a key platform for BSI's FP&A and Commercial Finance teams, supporting budgeting, forecasting and long-range planning. This role will help ensure the solution not only works technically, but is ready for Finance teams to use successfully as it is deployed across BSI. You will work closely with FP&A, Commercial Finance, regional Finance teams, Deloitte and the wider transformation programme to understand business requirements, support solution design, coordinate testing and data validation, prepare users for deployment and support adoption following go-live. This is very much a Finance Transformation role rather than a BAU Finance position. You will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience of a major global SAC implementation, working across multiple deployment waves and supporting Finance teams through significant process and system change., * Develop a strong understanding of BSI's new SAP Analytics Cloud Planning solution and how it will support FP&A and Commercial Finance. * Work with Finance stakeholders to gather, challenge, document and validate business and functional requirements. * Help translate Finance requirements into clear functional specifications for Deloitte and technology delivery teams. * Support the design of future-state SAC processes covering budgeting, forecasting, rolling forecasts and long-range planning. * Support the design and validation of SAC planning models, dimensions, hierarchies, workflows, approval structures, planning calendars and security requirements. * Help define the readiness and success criteria that must be achieved before SAC is deployed into each country or region. * Support deployment activities across multiple global rollout waves, ensuring Finance teams, processes, data and systems are ready for go-live. * Plan and coordinate User Acceptance Testing (UAT), including developing test scenarios, scripts and acceptance criteria. * Work directly with Finance users to ensure the system has been thoroughly tested ahead of deployment. System readiness, user testing and training for each deployment were identified as core priorities for the role during the briefing. * Support data mapping, migration, validation and reconciliation between existing and future Finance systems. * Log, track and support the resolution of defects alongside Deloitte and wider programme teams. * Develop training materials, user documentation and work instructions and support end-user training and onboarding. * Support change management and business readiness activities, building relationships with Finance super-users and champions across BSI. * Provide post-go-live hyper-care and help ensure new SAC processes become successfully embedded within the Finance community. * Support the ongoing administration and continuous improvement of SAC following implementation. ## Related Videos - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [Web-based Information Visualization](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/84-web-based-information-visualization) - [Replacing Excel with SAP APIs & Python validation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1944-replacing-excel-with-sap-apis-python-validation) - [Beyond GPT: Building Unified GenAI Platforms for the Enterprise of Tomorrow](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1525-beyond-gpt-building-unified-genai-platforms-for-the-enterprise-of-tomorrow) - [When AI Runs the Business: The Reality of Enterprise-Wide Automation](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100124-when-ai-runs-the-business-the-reality-of-enterprise-wide-automation) - [Why Your AI Agent Keeps Hallucinating Your Data: Building Deterministic Context Layers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2055-why-your-ai-agent-keeps-hallucinating-your-data-building-deterministic-context-layers) ## Related Articles - [Data Analyst Salary in the UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/278-data-analyst-salary-in-the-uk) - [Data Analyst Salary in Switzerland](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/276-data-analyst-salary-in-switzerland) - [Data Analyst Salary Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/277-data-analyst-salary-germany) - [Data Analyst Salary Austria](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/275-data-analyst-salary-austria) - [Best Companies to work for in London: Top 25 Companies in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/187-best-companies-to-work-for-in-london-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk)
