Finance Transformation Project

The team has recently commenced the Finance Transformation Project (“FTP”), as part of the lead-up to a necessary upgrade of our ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system to SAP S/4HANA. The FTP is essentially a strategic redefinition of our Finance operations where teams are organized around Centres of Excellence, and processes are streamlined and standardized where possible to efficiently utilize technological solutions with automation driving organizational efficiencies. The project is expected to stretch over the duration of the management trainee assignment.

The trainee is expected to contribute to the project and will be involved in various transformational activities throughout the assignment, mainly around processes and controls design, documentation, and subsequent implementation.
