Description


We are seeking a highly skilled and analytical Senior SAP FICO Business Analyst to join our global SAP team. This pivotal role involves optimizing and supporting our SAP ECC 6.0 financial and controlling functions.  The ideal candidate will bridge the gap between finance stakeholders and technical teams, ensuring our systems are efficient, compliant, and support our global distribution operations.

Responsibilities


  • Business Requirement Analysis & Solution Design: Act as a primary point of contact for the Finance and Accounting departments to gather, analyze, and document complex business requirements. Translate these needs into effective SAP solutions and detailed functional specifications, ensuring alignment with business strategy and best practices.
  • SAP FICO Configuration & Support: Lead the design, configuration, testing, deployment, and ongoing support of core SAP FI/CO modules, including GL, AP, AR, and CO-PA.
  • Compliance and Regulatory Expertise:  Recommend and implement SAP solutions that ensure strict compliance with relevant US and global accounting principles, standards, and regulatory requirements (e.g., GAAP, IFRS, and local tax laws).
  • Integration Management: Ensure seamless and robust integration between SAP ECC 6.0 and various third-party systems and internal platforms used by BDI.  These include EDI, Hyland/OnBase, Vertex, Billtrust, and SAP BW.
  • Testing & Quality Assurance: Develop comprehensive test scenarios, conduct unit and integration testing, and coordinate User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with business users to ensure solutions are fully functional and meet business needs.
  • Documentation & Training: Create and maintain robust documentation for configurations, processes, and work instructions. Provide training and ongoing support to end-users and key stakeholders.
  • Process Improvement: Proactively identify opportunities for process re-engineering and efficiency improvements within the financial landscape, leveraging SAP functionality and add-on tools.
  • Teamwork & Leadership: Work collaboratively with cross-functional teams, mentor junior analysts, and manage project timelines and deliverables for small to medium-sized projects.


Skills, Knowledge and Experience


  • A bachelor’s degree in information systems, accounting, finance, or a related business field is required. 
  • Minimum of 8+ years of proven experience as an SAP Business Analyst or Consultant with a primary focus on the FICO modules.
  • Hands-on experience with SAP ECC 6.0 is essential; familiarity with S/4HANA is a plus.
  • Demonstrated experience with finance system integrations, particularly with third-party tax, document management, and cash application solutions (e.g., Vertex, Hyland OnBase, Billtrust).
  • Experience in an industrial distribution, manufacturing, or retail industry environment is highly desirable.
  • Deep functional expertise in SAP FI (GL, AP, AR, AA, Banking) and CO (CCA, PCA, Product Costing, CO-PA).
  • Understanding of integration points with other SAP modules (MM, SD).
  • Exceptional analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a keen eye for detail.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
  • Proven ability to work effectively in a team environment, as well as independently manage multiple priorities and deadlines.


Benefits


BDI Team Members can expect industry leading benefits including competitive pay, exceptional variable compensation programs, health benefits, 401(k) and profit-sharing program, maternal and paternal leave programs, tuition reimbursement, referral bonuses, and many more.  All in an exciting and ever-changing entrepreneurial environment.
