  • Issue Investigation & Stakeholder Support: Investigate and resolve reconciliation breaks raised by Recon Teams, Treasury Operations, and Finance stakeholders, and respond to ad‑hoc accounting queries from regional and overseas teams.

  • System & Issue Remediation: Partner with Murex BAU and GM teams to identify missing or deficient Murex accounting rules, enhance existing accounting logic, and track closure of ageing or long‑standing accounting issues.

 Project & Change Management Support

  • Testing & Implementation: Design and execute end‑to‑end testing scenarios, perform UAT, support implementation activities, and conduct post‑implementation reviews to ensure accurate accounting across the full product lifecycle.
