We are looking for an analytical and customer-focused Finance Analyst to join the NEP Reporting and Analytics team, supporting the development and continuous improvement of reporting solutions across the NEP Cloud platform.
Working with Oracle Fusion technology, you will help design, develop and maintain reporting solutions that support key finance processes, including Procure to Pay (P2P), Order to Cash (O2C) and Account to Report (A2R). Working closely with the Application Support Leads and wider NEP team, you will contribute to system developments, quarterly Oracle updates and the implementation of new functionality, ensuring reporting evolves alongside the platform.
You will also support organisations joining the NEP Consortium by configuring reporting solutions, developing bespoke reports and providing guidance on reporting best practice.
This role would suit a recent graduate, particularly in Finance, Accounting, Business, Data Analytics or a related discipline, looking to build a career in finance systems and reporting.

Support the development, maintenance and continuous improvement of reporting and analytics solutions across the NEP Cloud platform.
Design, develop, test and implement reports, dashboards and analytical solutions to meet business and operational requirements.
Configure and deploy reporting solutions for new and existing consortium organisations, including organisational changes and service transitions.
Work with Application Support Leads to ensure reporting solutions align with Oracle quarterly releases and system enhancements.
Analyse complex business requirements and data to develop meaningful reporting solutions that support decision-making.
Provide expert advice and guidance to consortium members, NHS organisations and partners on reporting functionality, system capabilities and best practice.
Investigate and resolve reporting issues, responding to complex user queries through the NEP Service Desk.
Produce and maintain technical documentation, testing evidence and user guidance.
Support user acceptance testing, quality assurance and the delivery of training to maximise the effective use of reporting solutions.
Build strong stakeholder relationships and identify opportunities to enhance reporting capability, improve processes and deliver continuous service improvement.
