- Reduce noise and confusion: ensure that every stakeholder has the information they require to make decisions and do their job
- Ensure senior management and key stakeholders have a concise and detailed reporting structure that will provide transparency for projects and streams, and clearly highlight progress against milestones
- Develop performance analytics to support a data driven improvement process.
- As a member of the Delivery Guild, help to drive improvements, training, and best practices across 'Software Solutions'

**Business Competencies**:
Education and Experience (E - Essential / D - Desirable)

- Working in a Global market (multiple time zones) (D)
- Scrum Master certification (D)

**Commercial Awareness**:
Preferably has experience in financial software development.
**Personal Impact**:

- Technical background and ability to grasp technical concepts; not necessarily a history of programming / testing but this would be an asset
- Pragmatic, flexible and solutions driven
- Drive to 'get things done' and 'make things happen'
- Ability to ask 'Why? And challenge in a constructive manner
- Ability to get the best from people whilst having high expectations
