This role sits within a finance-led transformation program and acts as a trusted advisor to the business, helping teams stay aligned with internal policies, standards, and procedures. The work is highly collaborative and involves supporting multiple groups across the program.

- A proactive, solutions-focused mindset and the ability to work independently once up to speed.
Team Environment
The team is small, collaborative, and works closely with partner groups when needed. There are two process engineers on the team, and this role will work alongside risk advisors and other specialists across the broader program. The first month will be focused on learning the environment, after which the person will take ownership of the process.
Preferred Experience
- Experience working with finance, technology, or data risk in a COF or similar environment.
- Familiarity with enterprise policies and procedures, which will help the person ramp up quickly.
- Experience supporting transformation programs or business process change initiatives.
