Our company is switching from QuickBooks to NetSuite, and as the only person who knows how to use an Excel VLOOKUP, I’ve somehow become the project lead. My actual job responsibilities haven't decreased, so I’m basically doing a full software implementation in my spare time. Has anyone leveraged an ERP implementation into a high-paying Systems Accounting or FinOps role, or am I just doing free labor?

It could be a good bullet point if you were to go for such a role. You would be up against people who have done it their whole career and not as a one-off project. I’d be more focused on which one to prioritize, because transitioning like that while still maintaining a workload is going to be tough.

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
