We are seeking a finance assistant/data entry specialist to support the implementation of a new ERP system. The successful candidate will play a key role in migrating data from existing systems into the new ERP, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and completeness of all data. This is a critical position in the project, requiring a high level of focus and precision during the systems implementation process.

Key Responsibilities:
Data Migration: Enter and validate data from legacy systems into the new ERP system, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and completeness.

Data Cleansing: Review and clean existing data to identify and rectify any discrepancies or errors before migration into the new system.

Data Quality Assurance: Conduct thorough checks and validation of migrated data, identifying any gaps or issues, and working closely with the project team to resolve them.

System Testing: Assist in testing the new ERP system by entering test data, monitoring outputs, and reporting issues or errors encountered.

Documentation: Maintain accurate documentation of data entry procedures, including data mapping and transformation rules for future reference.

Collaboration: Work closely with IT teams, business analysts, and other stakeholders to ensure smooth integration of data into the ERP system.

Data Formatting: Format data according to the ERP system requirements and data standards.

Reporting: Generate reports from the new ERP system for analysis, ensuring the completeness and accuracy of all entered data.

Support: Provide ongoing support during the post-implementation phase, assisting with data-related queries and issues.

Experience in finance is essential and any experience in data entry, data migration, or working with ERP systems (particularly during implementations) is preferred.

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
