Growing a Financial Systems function with multiple key hires
Board International offers an all-in-one Corporate Performance Management (CPM) & Business Intelligence (BI) software solution. Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Switzerland, Board has experienced significant growth in recent years and amongst the many accolades they have won, Gartner awarded them ‘visionary’ product status in 2014.
The solution:
SystemsAccountants have been a tier one supplier of implementation resource to Board for several years, specifically sourcing candidates to join on a permanent basis at various levels including helpdesk support, Junior Consultant, Consultant and Senior CPM Consultant. SystemsAccountants have been mandated to source, assess and supply candidates who not only possess a blended finance/accounting – IT skill set, but also combine a rounded business background to ensure that Board Consultants have the necessary awareness of the functionality clients seek to leverage from a planning, financial reporting and management information application.
The outcome:
To date, SystemsAccountants have placed six BI and Finance Systems professionals with Board who possess backgrounds in CPM technologies such as Cognos Planning, TM1, Hyperion, SAP.
