Job Description
Description We are looking for a Functional Business Analyst to support a long-term contract engagement in Burlington, Massachusetts area. This role will focus on evaluating financially significant business processes and building a detailed risk and controls framework that strengthens financial reporting integrity. The position partners with stakeholders across accounting, operations, supply chain, and technology to identify exposures, assess control design, and define practical remediation steps.
Responsibilities:
- Develop a comprehensive risk and control matrix covering key financial reporting processes, including automated, manual, system-supported manual, interim, and deficient controls.
- Analyze order-to-cash activities such as revenue recognition, pricing, credits, billing, cash application, customer data management, deductions, and accounts receivable to identify reporting risks and control needs.
- Review procure-to-pay workflows across vendor setup, purchasing, receiving, matching, invoice handling, payments, and accounts payable to document risk points and control effectiveness.
- Evaluate inventory and manufacturing-related accounting processes, including movement tracking, valuation, reserves, counts, reconciliations, production reporting, cost variances, yields, and plant-level control activities.
- Assess record-to-report operations spanning journal entries, reconciliations, consolidation, period-end close, financial statement preparation, and management review procedures.
- Examine controls related to fixed assets, capital projects, payroll impacts on financial reporting, treasury activities, cash management, banking, and debt oversight.
- Document governance requirements for financially relevant master data, including customers, vendors, items, bills of material, routings, pricing structures, chart of accounts, cost centers, and approval frameworks.
- Identify financial reporting implications tied to user access, segregation of duties, privileged access, change management, system interfaces, reconciliations, reporting outputs, data conversions, and spreadsheet-based tools.
- Define interim control requirements across environments operating on ERP Cloud, legacy manufacturing execution platforms, and legacy supply planning solutions, and recommend remediation or enhancement actions where gaps are found.
