  • Understanding of domestic processing flows and related operational impacts

International Payments

  • Experience with SWIFT and cross-border payment journeys
  • Ability to compare/contrast domestic vs international flows

Migration & Transformation Projects

  • Mapping current vs target payment flows
  • Supporting integration, transition and cutover activities
  • Working closely with architecture and engineering teams to join the dots

Business Technical Bridge

  • Interpreting complex end-to-end payment journeys
  • Documenting actual vs intended system behaviour
  • Spotting gaps, ambiguities and risks before they bite

Stakeholder Engagement

  • Partnering with SMEs across payments, operations and tech
  • Navigating fast-moving, ambiguous environments with confidence
  • Keeping delivery teams aligned and focused

Mindset & Approach

  • Pragmatic, delivery-focused and not reliant on theoretical models
  • Comfortable working around legacy constraints and tight timelines
  • Able to balance ideal-world vision with real-world delivery
