About this role
In a context where the Group's Finance Core Model is currently under construction and evolving, the Expert Consultant acts as an expert service provider on behalf of the Finance Executive Committee (Codir), which is its final guarantor and accountable owner.

The mission involves : 1/ Securing the subsidiary's integration trajectory by performing rigorous fit-gap analyses, designing compliance solutions and target workaround scenarios, and technically validating the quality of financial flows and functional testing (UAT) prior to the switchover, backed by a technical quality veto right on the Go-Live milestone 2/ Ensuring—continuously and upstream— with the Finance Codir and its dedicated functional experts that deployment and alignment proposals are fully in phase with the Group's target orientations and evolving Core Model arbitrages.
Key Responsibilities : Presentation and Alignment with the Finance Codir Act as the operational relay for the Finance Codir on the ground during integration - working in close synergy with the Project Manager - and adapting the level of escalation to the complexity of the subjects. Continuously ensure proper alignment of the proposed integration trajectories and projects with the latest evolutions and arbitrations of the Group Core Model, aligning target timelines with the Project Manager.
Submit and obtain validation from the Finance Codir regarding the relevance and accuracy of the "gap analysis" performed within the subsidiary. Management of simple / standard issues: Maintain complete autonomy over the analysis of gaps that do not challenge the guiding principles of the Core Model (e.g., alignment of standard processes, minor local configuration adaptations). Management of complex / structural issues: In the event of complex gaps (e.g., heavy local regulatory/tax constraints, major impacts on Finance IS flows, derogatory accounting schemes), structure the analysis and prepare the documentation required for validation by the Finance Codir's dedicated experts before any local validation.
