• Advanced knowledge of enterprise process architecture, business process analysis, value‑stream mapping, business capability mapping, operating model design, workflow documentation, process improvement methods, governance frameworks, and transformation planning.
• Ability to analyze complex process issues, assess requirements, identify enterprise risks and dependencies, and develop evidence‑based recommendations.
• Strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to lead workshops, influence senior stakeholders, support enterprise‑level decision‑making, and build alignment across business, finance, operations, and technology teams.
• Ability to create clear process maps, process documentation, reports, presentations, and executive‑ready materials for business and technical audiences.
• Knowledge of process/workflow modeling tools, business analysis practices, ERP‑enabled process design, and technology‑enabled improvement opportunities.
