We are seeking a senior technology leader to own and evolve the firm's Finance Technology platform‑spanning ERP Accounting/GL, FP&A, integrations with firm-wide systems, and the supporting data and analytics stack. This is a senior role accountable for both Change (strategy, architecture, modernization, transformation delivery) and Run (reliability, controls, service excellence) of mission‑critical finance capabilities that underpin accounting close, planning/forecasting, profitability and strategic analysis, regulatory reporting, and data‑driven decision‑making across the enterprise. This role directly manages a global team (including offshore/nearshore partners) and will be the primary technology partner to Finance leadership (CFO organization: Controller, FP&A, Treasury, Tax, Procurement, and Finance Operations).

• Set the vision and roadmap: for Finance Technology (ERP/GL, subledgers, FP&A/EPM, reconciliations, consolidations, management reporting), grounded in asset‑management finance needs (multi‑GAAP/IFRS, multi‑entity, multi‑currency, fee accruals, product P&L, allocations).
• Establish architecture principles: -e.g., domain‑driven design, API‑first, event‑driven, data‑by‑design, zero‑trust‑with a vendor‑agnostic stance; evaluate SAP, Oracle, and leading FP&A/EPM platforms on fit‑for‑purpose, TCO, and time‑to‑value rather than brand preference.
• Own platform governance: standards, reference architectures, non‑functional requirements (availability, performance, resiliency), and technical debt management.

• Modernize ERP/GL and FP&A/EPM: e.g., S/4HANA or Oracle Fusion roadmaps; planning/forecasting tooling; scenario modeling; driver‑based plans; close acceleration.
• Lead data & analytics for Finance: own the finance data model (Chart of Accounts, legal entity hierarchy, cost centers), semantic layers, and self‑service analytics for CFO, FP&A, and Business Unit finance partners.
• Embed AI/ML/RPA thoughtfully: journal anomaly detection, automated reconciliations, close‑task copilots, forecast augmentation, narrative generation-balancing innovation with control, auditability, and data privacy.
• Deliver with agility: product operating model, one‑week sprints when feasible, small stories, iterative releases, and measurable business outcomes.

• SRE‑led operations: across ERP, FP&A, integrations, data pipelines: incident/problem/change management, observability (SLIs/SLOs), capacity planning, DR/BCP, access controls, and performance tuning.
• Financial controls and compliance: Internal controls over financial reporting, segregation of duties, audit readiness, data retention, regulatory reporting integrity, and change control rigor.
• Vendor & commercial management: RFPs, SOWs, SLAs, and performance scorecards for SaaS and managed services partners.

• Trusted advisor to Finance: -shape demand, clarify current‑state vs. target‑state, articulate principles, goals, anti‑goals, and milestones; present budget implications and value propositions to secure executive sponsorship.
• Point of escalation: for mission‑critical issues; communicate not just status, but direction and platform‑wide impact to senior stakeholders.

• Deep Finance Technology expertise: in asset management or capital markets finance: ERP Accounting/GL, subledgers (AP/AR/Fixed Assets), consolidations, management & statutory reporting, and FP&A (planning, forecasting, scenario and profitability analysis).
• Former software engineer or architect: with hands‑on experience in modern implementation and integration practices (APIs, microservices, streaming, event‑driven workflows, CI/CD, infrastructure as code).
• Vendor‑agnostic mindset: with a track record evaluating and integrating solutions across SAP/Oracle and leading FP&A/EPM platforms (e.g., Anaplan, OneStream, Workday Adaptive), selecting based on outcomes, not brand.
• Data & analytics leadership: finance data modeling (COA, entities, hierarchies), semantic layers, BI platforms, and governing data quality at scale.
• AI/Automation literacy: in finance contexts: gen‑AI, ML, and RPA use cases; feasibility assessment; model governance (explainability, bias, privacy); and safe deployment.
• Proven global leadership: of internal teams and managed service partners (offshore/nearshore), including budgeting, capacity planning, and multi‑time‑zone delivery.
• Executive communication and stakeholder management: ability to engage CFO, Controller, FP&A head; set expectations; and serve as final escalation point.
• Agile & ITSM fluency: product operating model, backlog management, metrics/KPIs; ITIL‑aligned operations using platforms like ServiceNow.

• Experience modernizing SAP S/4HANA or Oracle Fusion Cloud: finance landscapes; migrating from on‑prem EPM to cloud FP&A.
• Familiarity with investment/portfolio data: (IBOR/ABOR), performance & attribution, and fees‑bridging finance with front‑office data.
• Relevant certifications: SAFe/Agile leadership, cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), ITIL, or finance systems (SAP, Oracle, OneStream, Anaplan).
• Education: Bachelor's/ master's in computer science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent experience.
