About the role

The Senior Assistant Manager leads and coordinates the TTSH Finance readiness for the SAP S/4HANA Harmonisation Project while continuing to provide core finance support in financial planning, budgeting, profitability analysis, OPEX and capital investment review, financial governance and stakeholder advisory. The role supports the transition from SAP ECC6 (FICO) to SAP S/4HANA and works across Finance, users, NHG, Synapxe, 1FSS, implementation partners and stakeholders to deliver a controlled, well-documented and sustainable migration.

• Develop and maintain the institution-level Finance project plan, milestones, dependencies, risks, issues, decisions and action logs, and prepare status updates, dashboards and escalation papers for Finance leadership and governance forums.
• Coordinate Finance participation in fit-to-standard and process-design discussions, assess proposed standard processes against current workflows and promote standardisation while discouraging unnecessary customisation.
• Lead migration preparation and housekeeping of current SAP Finance processes and master data, including cost centre hierarchies, data cleansing, mapping, validation and reconciliation, and support the handover of the Grant Management module with 1FSS.
• Develop an institution-level testing approach, coordinate Finance user acceptance testing, cover critical accounting, budgeting, reporting, controls and integration scenarios, and coordinate cutover readiness and post-go-live stabilisation.
• Act as the central Finance liaison with NHG, Synapxe, SAP or the implementation vendor, 1FSS and internal users, and coordinate training, user briefings and knowledge transfer.
• Identify and manage project, operational, reporting, data, access, segregation-of-duties and business-continuity risks, and ensure new or changed processes maintain appropriate controls and approval trails.
• Perform profitability and financial analysis for revenue and cost centres, evaluate OPEX spending and capital investment requests, advise cost centres and departments, and use data analytics and visualisation tools to strengthen financial insights and reporting.
