• Analyse impacts across legacy applications, SAP ECC, SaaS platforms, and future ERP solutions
• Drive future-state process design, standardisation, and simplification
• Produce clear user stories and acceptance criteria for development teams
• Support UAT, defect triage, and production alignment

Required Experience

• Strong Finance systems and business process expertise
• Proven ability to operate across complex, multi-system environments
• Strong understanding of integrations, data flows, and cross-system dependencies
