Job description

Connect to your Industry

The Finance Change team is at the heart of delivering projects that drive value throughout the Firm. These could be policy changes, the introduction of new functionality and ways of working, regulatory changes or enhancements to current systems and processes. The team manages a thriving and complex stakeholder environment, collaborating with leaders in the UK & Swiss firm, colleagues from North & South Europe (NSE) and with technical experts from the Global Finance Services (GFS) organisation.

The NSE digital finance backbone is Swift, which is Deloitte’s new global SAP S4 HANA Finance Platform. The Programme deployed SWIFT into US and Canada in December 2017, into UK, Switzerland and Australia in 2018, and into five more countries of NSE finishing in February 2021. Alongside the technology, the Programme transitioned work to a captive Global Finance Services (GFS) organisation as well as developing and deploying a suite of new reporting capabilities.

The Business Analyst will be responsible for supporting the analysis and delivery of changes into the live operational environment and act as a key interface between the global technology teams, the NSE Finance Operations, UK/CH Finance department, and the UK/CH business lines.
