About the Role

This is a hybrid role that sits at the intersection of Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) and technical system integration. The Integration & FP&A Consultant bridges the gap between finance teams and technology platforms - designing and delivering both robust financial models and the data pipelines and integrations that power them.

You are equally comfortable building a multi-entity budget model in Adaptive Planning as you are writing a Python script to automate data extraction from a REST API. You bring financial acumen and technical depth, and you thrive working across both domains in a single engagement.

Responsibility and Accountability

Working closely with the engagement lead, you are responsible for the end-to-end delivery of both financial modelling and integration components within a project scope.

FP&A Skills Requirements

• Experience designing and delivering financial models, budgeting, and forecasting solutions
• Ability to translate complex client financial processes into scalable planning structures
• Experience developing multi-company consolidation models
• Ability to unpack client-specific processes, propose improvements, and implement solutions
• Experience with EPM tools such as Workday Adaptive Planning and Board

Integration & Technical Requirements

• Experience designing and building data integrations between source systems and FP&A platforms (e.g. ERP, HRIS, CRM to Adaptive Planning or Board)
• Ability to develop Python scripts and automation workflows to extract, transform, and load financial and operational data
• Experience with RESTful APIs and other integration protocols to connect client systems
• Working knowledge of JSON and XML data formats
• Experience with tools such as Postman, pandas, or similar for API testing and data manipulation
• Understanding of relational databases and SQL for querying and data validation
• Experience building and maintaining data pipelines that support automated reporting and planning cycles
• Ability to identify opportunities to automate manual financial processes through scripting and integration tooling
• Document integration architecture, data flows, and technical specifications
• Troubleshoot data quality issues and resolve integration failures proactively

Soft Skills & Professional Qualities

• A confident and clear communicator - able to translate technical concepts for finance audiences and vice versa
• Enjoys working collaboratively within a team, guiding and enabling others for shared success
• Experience managing multiple concurrent projects with competing priorities
• Effective planning and organisational skills with high attention to detail
• Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines consistently
• Experience in a professional services or consulting environment is beneficial
