Job Title: GBS Head of Finance Solution Architecture

Reporting to the GBS Head of Business Process Excellence, the GBS Head of Process Architecture & Design is a leadership role, accountable for the effective design, development and introduction of new GBS services. This includes pro-active development of new Order-to-Cash functionality, including CRM integration, online payment facilities, etc.

The Technology Services and Support function (TSS) within Global Support has built up strength and leadership in enterprise architecture and solution architecture over the recent past. GBS needs to recruit/build corresponding skills and resources in order to partner with TSS. Key to this partnership and to meeting divisional requirements is to build equivalent strength and capability in solution design, services design, and controls design.

Development of centrally designed, O2C capability is a major focus across all divisions and Global Support. The introduction of this role is part of a wider set of investments in pro-active, coordinated service and platform design.

The role will have elements of input and advice from the candidate's own experience and knowledge but the successful candidate will also be responsible for hiring resource and talent to create capacity and specialism as needed.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead the design and development of new GBS services, including Order-to-Cash functionality
  • Partner with TSS to build equivalent strength and capability in solution design, services design, and controls design
  • Develop and implement a strategy for the introduction of new O2C platforms and solutions
  • Hire and manage a team of resources to create capacity and specialism as needed
Requirements:
  • Proven experience in a complex finance/business environment
  • Strong leadership and management skills
  • Ability to work to stringent deadlines
  • Highly organized and diligent with attention to detail
  • Experience in change management, service and process design, and service introduction
  • Excellent relationship management skills
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills
  • Flexible and adaptable
What We Offer:
  • Freedom and flexibility to work remotely
  • A welcoming culture with in-person and online social events
  • Opportunity to develop your career with bespoke training and learning
  • Time out: 25 days annual leave, rising to 27 days after two years
  • A flexible range of personal benefits to choose from
  • Company funded private medical cover
  • ShareMatch scheme that allows you to become an Informa shareholder with free matching shares
  • Strong wellbeing support through EAP assistance, mental health first aiders, and more

We're not solely focused on a checklist of skills. We champion energy and ambition and look for colleagues who will roll their sleeves up, join in, and help make things happen. If it sounds like a match and you have most – although not all – of the skills and experience listed, we welcome your application.

At Informa, you'll find inclusive experiences and environments where all perspectives and backgrounds are welcomed. As part of this approach and our diversity and inclusion commitments, we are also formally an Equal Opportunities Employer.
