• Support the testing and implementation of solutions.
• Support business transitions and help establish change and improvements.
• Create and maintain documentation regarding various projects, processes, and operations

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to facilitate discussions, influence stakeholders and make technical information clear to non-technical audiences.
• Experience modelling business processes and data, identifying improvement opportunities, and using analysis to support sound business decisions.
• Experience supporting solution validation, user acceptance testing and implementation, including developing or reviewing test scenarios against acceptance criteria.
• Confidence identifying risks, issues and dependencies, assessing their business impact and working with stakeholders to develop practical responses.
