WHAT YOU'LL DO
Join us as we embark on a journey to transform BCG’s Finance organization. “Future Finance” is a multi-year journey to prepare the Finance function for the BCG of the future: a BCG that continues to grow, and one that has become more complex, more diverse and more interdependent. By rethinking structures, harmonizing processes across geographies and business entities, and automating key tasks with new technologies, we will deliver a simpler and more efficient operating model encouraging collaboration and flexibility to meet the ever-changing needs of BCG.

In this role you will be a key member of the finance systems transformation delivery team, known internally as SAP4BCG that is tasked with introducing a new cloud-based ERP into the BCG ecosystem.

  • Working independently — You are self-motivated and take initiative. You look for opportunities to contribute and work well with a virtual team. You’re enthusiastic about working with a global team, and comfortable being responsive and flexible across time zones
  • Managing across many workstreams and deliverables — You are able to multitask, prioritize and manage multiple deliverables with realistic but aggressive deadlines and commitments. You have strong attention to detail and excellent time management skills.
  • Influencing as change agent — communicate and coordinate with R2R delivery teams and global cross-functional stakeholders to encourage teams to understand and adopt new ways of thinking
