• Change management: act as the central Finance liaison with NHG, Synapxe, the implementation vendor and users, map stakeholders, run readiness reviews, coordinate training and build capability through cross-training and documentation.
• Risk, control and quality: identify and manage project, data, access, segregation-of-duties and business-continuity risks, ensure preventive and detective controls, and apply quality checks to deliverables.
• Other finance duties: profitability and financial analysis, OPEX and capital investment review, financial planning advice, process improvement recommendations, and use of data analytics and visualisation tools.
