• Oversee and provide technical support for central controls including daily reconciliations, decomp attribution calculation engines, monthly reporting packs (SODS), MI reporting and Valuation Adjustment (VCON) workflow tools.

• Collaborate with business lines and regional Product Control teams to understand requirements, ensure successful implementations, and facilitation knowledge sharing across global operations.

• Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance controls, automate processes, re-engineer workflows and replace legacy systems.
