Flutter consists of two commercial divisions (FanDuel and International) and our central Flutter Functions; COO, Finance & Legal. Here in Flutter Finance we provide global expertise to ensure Flutter is financially healthy, leveraging the Flutter Edge to turbo-charge capabilities.
What You’ll Do
At Flutter, we are embarking on an ambitious global finance transformation programme over the next three years. The Manager will be responsible for delivering elements of the Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (ICFR) pillar of the transformation programme, as well as supporting other finance transformation pillars (e.g. finance ERP implementation) by providing ICFR input and insight. The position will report to the Head of IT Controls Transformation.
The ICFR Pillar Includes The Delivery Of
* Transformation of the ICFR annual cycle
* Transformation of how ICFR are crafted, implemented and operated, across the global organisation
* ICFR support for the wider transformation being delivered through the finance transformation programme, which cover data, systems, people, organisation design, and global process owners.
* Project management and oversight for the implementation of deficiency remediation, for the purposes of SOX 404 (a) and (b) reporting.
The ICFR pillar covers business and IT processes both at the group and within divisions. Our current staffing model is to use external resources (e.g. from a Big 4 firm). The roles performed by external resources are being converted into 3 year full-time contractors if the roles will last for the duration of the finance transformation programme, or permanent employees if we identify new ongoing requirements that will continue beyond the end of the finance transformation programme.
Accountabilities & Responsibilities

This includes IT general controls across the full spectrum of IT domains and IT automated controls.

* Prepare briefing documents for the Group’s external auditors on the project plan that you are handling.
* Collaborate with the teams of other key internal collaborators who have ownership in some or all of the ICFR project plan, to deliver the vital transformation and address concerns they may have. This is likely to include teams reporting to Divisional CFOs and Divisional CIOs, and other senior members of the Group Functions such as Tax and Treasury.
How You’ll Do It
