Partner with finance process owners to simplify, standardize, and automate business processes while ensuring appropriate controls, auditability, compliance, and operational resilience.
Manage dependencies across Agile Release Trains, SAP workstreams, data, integrations, reporting, security, testing, change management, and business readiness activities.
Work with system integrators and internal delivery partners to ensure solution designs are fit for purpose, scalable, maintainable, and aligned with enterprise standards.
