Role Overview:

We are looking for a Record-to-Report (RTR) Architect to lead the design of financial close, reporting, and consolidation solutions on SAP FI/CO / S/4HANA Finance. This role requires deep expertise in financial accounting, group/statutory reporting, and multi-GAAP compliance, along with hands-on experience delivering solutions across US and EU entities.

Key Responsibilities:

- Own the end-to-end RTR solution architecture — General Ledger, Asset Accounting, Financial Close, Intercompany, and Group/Statutory Reporting — within SAP FI/CO / S/4HANA Finance.
- Lead blueprint and fit-gap workshops with US and EU finance stakeholders, ensuring designs support US GAAP alongside EU statutory/IFRS/local GAAP requirements, multi-currency, and country-specific tax and legal reporting.
- Define the integration architecture between FI/CO and upstream modules (SD, MM, PP) as well as reporting and consolidation tools (SAP Group Reporting, BPC, or equivalent).
- Drive global template design and localization strategy for statutory reporting, tax compliance (e.g., e-invoicing/SAF-T style requirements in EU, 1099/sales tax in the US), and chart of accounts harmonization across regions.
- Review functional specifications and WRICEF objects for the finance workstream, ensuring architectural consistency, auditability, and compliance.
- Lead architecture review boards for the finance track, resolving cross-module design conflicts and maintaining design authority documentation.
- Own solution design across the full project lifecycle — blueprint, realization, testing, cutover, and hyper care — for large multi-country SAP finance transformation programs, including Central Finance and S/4HANA conversions.




- Mentor RTR functional consultants and act as the escalation point for complex financial close and reporting design issues.
- Partner closely with OTC, SCM, and technical architects, as well as controllership and tax teams, to ensure a fully integrated financial solution.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

- 12+ years of SAP FI/CO experience with a focus on Record-to-Report, including at least 3-4 full lifecycle implementations as a solution architect or lead.
- Proven experience delivering RTR solutions for both US and EU legal entities, with working knowledge of US GAAP, IFRS, and EU statutory/local GAAP reporting requirements.
- Strong hands-on expertise in General Ledger, Asset Accounting, New GL, financial close processes, intercompany reconciliation, and multi-currency/multi-ledger design.
- Experience with S/4HANA Finance, Central Finance, and SAP Group Reporting or BPC for consolidation.
- Demonstrated experience integrating FI/CO with SD, MM, tax engines, and statutory/e-invoicing reporting tools relevant to EU jurisdictions.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience presenting to finance leadership (Controllers, CFO office) across multiple regions.
- Solid understanding of global template design, chart of accounts strategy, and rollout methodology for multinational finance transformations.

Preferred / Positive to Have:

- SAP S/4HANA Finance certification.
- Experience with SAP Central Finance for phased S/4HANA migration.
- Exposure to tax/compliance automation tools (Vertex, OneSource, e-invoicing platforms).
- Prior experience in a Big 4 or systems integrator consulting environment delivering to large enterprise clients.

Education:

- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Computer Science, or a related field; CA / CPA / MBA (Finance) is a plus.
