- Digitalization & Control: Drive the use of digital tools for access monitoring, focusing on risk mitigation and process efficiency.
- Expert Leadership: Act as a technical mentor, validating Segregation of Duties (SoD) concepts and ensuring providers meet the group’s high-quality standards.
- Short-term Success: Within your first 6 months, you will have audited the current role model and presented a technical harmonization plan for international sites.
