Perform data analysis to identify control gaps, process inefficiencies, and data quality issues, recommending sustainable remediation solutions.
Escalate material control issues, risks, and unresolved exceptions in a timely and transparent manner.
Support transformation initiatives through requirements gathering, process design, business analysis, user acceptance testing (UAT), and implementation activities.
Collaborate with Technology partners to define business requirements, validate system enhancements, and monitor successful implementation into production.
Contribute to the ongoing development and enhancement of the ARA operating model by identifying opportunities to improve automation, controls, governance, and operational efficiency.
Develop and maintain strong relationships across Finance, GRU, Bank Network Management, Operations, Business teams, and Technology organizations.
Produce clear and concise management reporting, including issue summaries, risk assessments, and status updates for senior stakeholders.
