Formulate technical options and remediation paths for senior leadership to de-risk delivery timelines for the strategic initiatives.

Stakeholder Engagement and Collaboration

Work closely with industry working groups and represent the organization in relevant ISO 20022 forums with a focus on the primed payment system.

Mentorship and Peer Review Excellence

Drive accountability and technical quality within the COE by establishing rigorous self-QA and peer-review protocols for all message mapping and technical drafts.
Provide continuous technical mentorship and technical coaching to junior staff to uplift overall team capability and eliminate single points of failure.

Continuous Improvement

Monitor evolving industry trends and regulatory changes related to ISO 20022 and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.

Strong understanding of ISO 20022 business model, logical data structure, and physical syntax (XML/JSON data formats)

Strong business acumen related to the Financial Services and payments industry

Professional Competencies

Demonstrate Mature Confidence: Demonstrating confidence and realistic trust in one's own abilities. Understanding and managing their own emotions and drives, and the impact of self on others to minimize counterproductive actions, instill trust and inspire others.
Think Strategically: Seeing and synthesizing different sides of an issue, examining the full range of options and outcomes, and building intellectual frameworks to guide analysis and action.
Make Decisions: Using critical thinking, good business sense and organizational values to make decisions involving varying levels of risk and ambiguity.
Drive Success: Understanding the workings, structure, culture, as well as the distribution of power within and beyond the organization; utilizing this understanding to solve problems and achieve desired outcomes.
Apply Business Acumen: Continually seeking new ways to enhance performance, improve results and/or transform the business and the industry in which it operates.
