  • Experience leading complex workstreams or teams, preferably within financial services, technology, operations, risk management, or another highly regulated environment.
  • Proficiency with process mapping and re-engineering methods such as Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN), Suppliers, Inputs, Process, Outputs, Customers (SIPOC), value stream mapping, Lean, Six Sigma, business capability mapping, operating model design, or related disciplines.
  • Experience applying process standards, governance routines, repositories, reusable templates, maturity assessments, and reporting within technology process improvement programs.

  • Ability to lead complex process mapping and re-engineering workstreams within a large, matrixed technology organization.
  • Ability to identify process inefficiencies and convert analysis into practical redesign options, implementation plans, and measurable outcomes.
  • Ability to engage senior stakeholders, facilitate decisions, challenge constructively, and build alignment across organizational boundaries.
  • Understanding of how process design, ownership, controls, metrics, and evidence support operational resilience and a sound control environment.
  • Strong written, verbal, and facilitation skills, including the ability to convert complex processes into clear narratives, visual maps, decision materials, and concise recommendations.
  • Ability to evaluate process data, control evidence, performance indicators, handoffs, and operating model constraints to identify root causes and improvement opportunities.

Responsibilities

  • Apply the GTS technology process mapping methodology, standards, taxonomy, and tools to assigned priority processes, and provide practical feedback to improve the team’s approach.
  • Develop and maintain clear end-to-end views of priority GTS processes, connecting activities, roles, systems, handoffs, controls, pain points, and performance indicators to improve transparency and accountability.
  • Lead assigned process mapping and re-engineering workstreams, coordinate contributions from team members and subject matter experts across global locations, and ensure consistent quality, timely delivery, and effective stakeholder engagement.
  • Conduct structured process analysis to identify duplication, fragmentation, manual workarounds, unclear ownership, control gaps, and opportunities to simplify, standardize, or automate execution.
  • Facilitate working sessions with GTS process owners and transformation teams to design future-state processes, clarify roles and decision rights, document requirements, and develop practical implementation plans.
  • Define and track measurable outcomes for assigned re-engineering initiatives, including reduced complexity, improved cycle times, stronger control alignment, clearer accountability, and better management information.
  • Execute governance routines that keep assigned process maps current, validated, owned, and aligned to GTS standards, control expectations, and management reporting needs.
  • Prepare concise, executive-ready reporting on process coverage, delivery progress, key risks, improvement opportunities, open decisions, and realized outcomes; escalate issues and recommendations to the Head of Technology Process Re-Engineering.
  • Build effective working relationships across GTS technology, risk, operations, and delivery teams to align on current-state findings, future-state design, priorities, dependencies, and adoption plans.
  • Facilitate fact-based discussions, resolve day-to-day ownership ambiguity, challenge inefficient ways of working constructively, and help teams move from process documentation to measurable and sustained improvement.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience leading complex workstreams or teams, preferably within financial services, technology, operations, risk management, or another highly regulated environment.
