• Oversee OpEx and CapEx planning and forecasting to support strategic decision-making and resource allocation
• Lead selection, implementation and optimisation of critical tools/systems (e.g., IWMS, ticketing, financial tracking); define requirements, manage vendors, ensure data integrity
• Coordinate training and change management initiatives; drive AI integration for automation to enhance efficiency and effectiveness

• Provide technical leadership on project and process frameworks (Agile/Waterfall), map and improve processes, drive continuous improvement
• Manage a portfolio of operational and strategic projects (delivery, resourcing, risk mitigation) while maintaining focus on quality outcomes

What will you bring to the team?

• Degree-level knowledge in Business, Finance, or Operations, or equivalent combination of professional certifications and practical experience
• Proven track record of establishing controls and performance metrics in Business Operations, Financial Analysis, Corporate Real Estate, or similar environments

• Experience in a high-growth or rapidly scaling technology company is desirable
• Familiarity with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) best practices is beneficial
