Summary
We are looking for a hands-on Transition Lead to support the integration of multiple Waygate Entities (soon to be part of Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence) into Hexagon Global Business Services (GBS) organization in Monterrey.
The role has a clear two-step evolution:
- Lead the transition phase (end-to-end migration into GBS)
- Take over as Team Leader for Accounting Operations (General Ledger) once operations stabilize.
This is a delivery-focused role, combining transition execution with strong accounting expertise — not a pure project management position.
Job Responsibilities
1. Transition phase (initial focus)
- Lead end-to-end finance transitions: planning, knowledge transfer, cutover, go-live, and stabilization.
- Coordinate process documentation, activity splits, workflows, and issue tracking.
- Ensure operational readiness: SAP access, banking setup, tools and data migration.
- Work closely with stakeholders across Finance, IT, Tax, and local entities.
- Ensure business continuity and smooth handover to GBS operations.
2. Post-transition (future role)
- Team Leader General Ledger / Accounting Operations team within GBS
- Recruit and manage direct reports.
- Own month-end close and reporting quality
- Drive process standardization, controls, and continuous improvement.
- Support audit readiness and statutory compliance coordination.
Qualifications
Profile (must-have)
- Strong SAP experience / HFM / OneStream (GL, month-end close, transactions)
- At least seven years of experience in Finance
- Solid Accounting / General Ledger background in SSC / GBS environment
- Proven experience in finance transitions into shared services
- Hands-on exposure to US based entities (multi-country environment)
- Ability to combine execution + leadership potential.
- Pragmatic, structured, and able to operate in a fast-moving integration context.
Nice to have
- Experience with multi-entity transitions / carve-outs / integrations.
- Knowledge of closing/reporting tools and data mapping
- Exposure to tax (VAT, federal, sales) and other statutory requirements
- Continuous improvement mindset (standardization, automation)
