Duties and Responsibilities
Business Central Support & Break/Fix Leadership
Own escalated and complex Business Central issues for Accounting, Credit, Order Entry/Billing, and Accounts Payable users, determining root cause and the appropriate fix, workaround, or configuration change.
Set the standard for triage and resolution across the break/fix log, distinguishing training gaps, process gaps, and true system defects, and directing the other Business Analyst on prioritization.
Serve as the primary point of escalation to IT or the Business Central partner for issues requiring vendor involvement.
Remain available for urgent issues during month-end close and other critical business cycles, and ensure adequate coverage across both Business Analysts during those periods.
Process Improvement & AI Strategy
Identify manual, repetitive, or error-prone processes across Accounting and Operations and lead the design of automated or AI-assisted solutions.
Build and maintain advanced Excel solutions (macros/VBA, Power Query, dynamic templates) to streamline reconciliations, reporting, and data transformation, and set standards for how these tools are built and maintained.
Evaluate, select, and help govern AI tools and agents (e.g., document extraction, contract review support, workflow assistance, reconciliation checks), establishing guardrails, testing standards, and documentation practices in coordination with the Controller and accounting leadership.
Mentor the other Business Analyst in building and maintaining AI-assisted and automated workflows.
Contracts and Business Knowledge
Develop and maintain deep working knowledge of the company's commercial contracts, including order/ship transactions and percentage-of-completion project work, to support billing, revenue, and margin-related system decisions.
Partner with the Controller and accounting team to understand branch/commission structures and acquisition integrations, and how these are reflected in Business Central.
Serve as a resource to the other Business Analyst and other departments on the company's operational nuances across a multi-branch, multi-entity, acquisitive environment.
General Business Analyst Leadership
Lead requirements-gathering sessions with business stakeholders and translate them into clear documentation (process maps, SOPs, functional specs).
Own more complex ad hoc reporting, dashboard development, and data analysis requests across accounting and operational departments.
Coordinate workload, coverage, and project assignments with the other Business Analyst, providing guidance and informal mentorship on systems knowledge and best practices.
Establish and maintain documentation standards for processes, system configurations, and known issues to support internal controls and audit readiness.
Assist with special projects or other duties as assigned by the Controller.
Position Requirements
Education & Experience
Bachelor's degree in Business, Accounting, Information Systems, or related field preferred; associate degree with significant relevant experience considered.
5-8+ years of experience supporting Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or a comparable Microsoft ERP system (NAV, GP, or similar) in a functional or business analyst capacity, including experience handling escalated or complex issues.
Skills & Attributes
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including macros/VBA and complex formula design; strong Power Query experience required.
Demonstrated experience applying AI tools to process improvement, including configuring, training, or governing AI agents in a business setting.
Strong troubleshooting and root-cause mindset, able to distinguish user error, process gaps, and system defects, and to guide others in doing the same.
Strong communicator and informal leader, comfortable working cross-functionally with Accounting, Credit, Order Entry/Billing, and Accounts Payable teams, and providing guidance to a peer analyst.
Self-motivated and adaptable to evolving processes and acquisitions, with sound judgment on when to elevate risk to the Controller.
