• Work closely with business users, technology teams, operations, and control functions to align requirements and processes.
• Create and maintain project artefacts including requirements documentation, process flows, test scripts, and sign-off materials.
• Support business readiness, ensuring appropriate training, communications, and operational support post-implementation.
• Identify and drive process optimisation and automation opportunities.
• Provide clear, professional communication to stakeholders at all levels, preparing materials for programme and governance meetings.
• Co-manage offshore migration activities and track deliverables across teams.
• Apply structured testing frameworks to validate system changes and ensure that all business scenarios are thoroughly tested.

Essential:
• Hands-on experience with the ACBS lending platform within a corporate or investment banking environment.
• Direct experience with Finastra Fusion Loan IQ, gained through operations or implementation projects (configuration, servicing, or syndicated lending).
• Strong understanding of corporate and institutional lending processes.
• Proven ability to manage large-scale data migrations or technology change initiatives.
• Excellent organisational, stakeholder management, and communication skills.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to interpret and present complex data.

Desirable:

• Familiarity with tools such as JIRA, Microsoft Project, Excel, and PowerPoint.
• Knowledge of loan servicing for term loans, revolvers, and other debt products.
• Prior experience in transformation or change management functions within financial services.
