Location: EMEA (Remote/Hybrid options available)
Department: Solution Consulting (Presales)

About Us

At Anaplan, we’re on a mission to connect people, plans, and data to enable confident decision-making at enterprise scale. Our platform empowers global enterprises to make faster, smarter decisions and drive better outcomes—whether in finance, supply chain, workforce, or beyond.

We are seeking a passionate Senior Solution Consultant – Financial Consolidation and Reporting to join our Solution Consulting team. In this role, you will partner with CFOs and finance transformation leaders to help them modernize the financial close process, achieve statutory compliance, and link consolidation seamlessly into the wider Connected Planning journey.

Your Role

As a Senior Solution Consultant, you will serve as Anaplan’s subject matter expert for financial close, consolidation, and reporting in the presales cycle. You will design and deliver compelling consolidation solutions, demonstrate how Connected Planning reduces closing cycles, and enable organizations to move from retrospective reporting to forward-looking insight.

Unlike traditional standalone consolidation tools, Anaplan goes further by unifying consolidation with forecasting, variance analysis, and scenario modeling. Your role is both advisory and hands-on: helping clients envision transformation, delivering value-driven demonstrations, and shaping enterprise-scale finance strategies.

• Partner with sales to qualify opportunities and position Anaplan as the enterprise platform of choice for consolidation and connected planning.
• Build and deliver tailored demonstrations that showcase measurable outcomes such as reducing close cycles, enhancing auditability, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
• Conduct discovery sessions to analyze client processes, pain points, and objectives, translating them into high-value solutions.

Industry Expertise and Thought Leadership

• Advise clients on best practices across industries (Banking, Insurance, Manufacturing, Retail, etc.), positioning Anaplan as a trusted finance transformation partner.
• Stay current with financial regulations (IFRS, US GAAP, ESG/CSRD requirements), market trends, and emerging technology such as AI/ML for automation and predictive insights.
• Contribute to presales assets—including demo environments, use-case accelerators, case studies, and proof-of-concept models.

Executive Engagement and Collaboration

• Engage with senior finance stakeholders (CFOs, Controllers, Finance Transformation Officers) to influence strategy and investment decisions.
• Present Anaplan’s value at executive level with clear ROI storytelling and business outcome orientation.
