Finance System Analyst
Edinburgh | £30,000 - £35,000 | Permanent
Consultant
Lewis Paterson
Scotland
A well known professional services firm is on the lookout for a Finance System Analyst to join their hybrid team in either Edinburgh, Glasgow or Aberdeen. This is a great opportunity for someone with experience supporting finance or practice management systems who's looking to develop their skills in a supportive, collaborative environment.
You'll be joining during an exciting period of change as the firm transitions to Elite 3E, so it's a great time to get involved.
What you'll be doing:
Your role will focus on supporting, maintaining, and configuring the firm's finance systems. You'll take ownership of incidents raised through the Helpdesk, ensure issues are properly logged and resolved, and work closely with IT and business teams to deliver a high quality support service.
You'll also:
- Provide 1st line support for the firm's practice management systems
- Escalate issues to third party suppliers where needed
- Help with the implementation of new systems
- Build relationships across departments to understand their needs and provide effective solutions
- Keep documentation up to date and ensure best practices are followed
What we're looking for:
- Experience supporting financial systems, ideally within a legal or professional services environment
- Exposure to practice management systems (Elite 3E experience would be a bonus)
- Experience with tools like Emburse Expenses or time management systems is a plus
- Good problem solving skills and a methodical approach
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work well with colleagues across different teams
The team & flexibility:
You'll be reporting to the Finance Systems Manager and joining a well established team that values internal development and promotes from within. The working environment is collaborative and flexible; if you're near Edinburgh, Glasgow, or Aberdeen, they'd love to see you in the office 1 or 2 days per week, but if you're further afield and a strong fit, fully remote is on the table.
Why apply?:
This is a great opportunity to join a stable and well respected firm that's investing in new systems and internal growth. The role comes with a salary of up to £35k (depending on experience), a strong holiday allowance, generous pension, up to 30% bonus potential, and a flexible working policy that supports a healthy work to life balance.
If you're a finance systems professional looking to take the next step in your career and want to work somewhere with great people, great benefits, and long term opportunities, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now or contact Lewis at Cathcart Technology for an informal chat.
