## Description

A seasoned SAP Finance Data Architect with deep retail and fashion industry expertise and a passion for designing the finance information model that clients run their business on. You have led clients through full-cycle SAP Finance transformations - from initial planning and analysis through build, test, and deployment - and you know how to translate ambitious reporting and profitability goals into a clear, governed finance data structure. You are equally comfortable workshopping the chart of accounts with a Corporate Controller, aligning profit center and segment design with a CFO, or coaching a junior consultant through a master data design decision.

You bring specific depth in defining the finance coding block for retail and fashion - chart of accounts, cost centers, profit centers, segments, and profitability characteristics - and in making design choices that balance statutory requirements, management reporting needs across brands, banners, channels, stores and seasons, and long-term data governance.

The Work:

As an SAP Finance Data Architect in Retail & Fashion you will:

 * Engage senior client Finance executives on how the finance information model supports business strategy, profitability transparency, and reporting - current and future.
 * Lead the definition of the finance information model across all phases of full-cycle SAP delivery: Plan, Analyze, Build, Test, and Deploy.
 * Define and govern the finance coding block for S/4HANA Finance: operational and group chart of accounts, company code and controlling area structure, cost center and profit center hierarchies, segments, functional areas, and other account assignment objects.
 * Design profit center and segment structures that deliver P&L visibility by brand, banner, channel (store, wholesale, e-commerce, franchise), region, and category, aligned with merchandise, article, and location hierarchies.
 * Define profitability analysis (Margin Analysis) characteristics and value fields, and the allocation, assessment, and cost-to-serve logic that supports retail and fashion margin reporting, including season and collection views.
 * Establish finance master data governance - ownership, standards, naming conventions, and change processes - including SAP MDG-F, and lead the mapping and migration of legacy structures to the target model.
 * Lead large, diverse project teams (onshore and offshore), maintaining quality, scope, and stakeholder alignment throughout delivery.
 * Advise on SAP's Business AI strategy - identifying where well-structured finance data can enable AI-driven insight, automation, and predictive accounting in Finance and Retail operations.
 * Contribute to thought leadership, reusable assets, and best-practice templates (e.g., retail and fashion reference chart of accounts and profit center models) to grow Accenture's SAP Retail capability.
