  • Ensure gaps that have been approved within governance forums are incorporated into build plans, ensuring seamless integration and delivery.

Requirements

  • Experience in Finance Transformation programs, e.g. SAP - detailed understanding of architecture and E2E processes within finance transformation initiatives.
  • Sound communication and leadership skills (strong English language speaker is a must), with a drive to harmonize and protect frameworks and methodologies from non-standard requests.
