Data Verification & Reconciliation: Oversee validation processes to ensure data integrity pre- and post-migration. Lead reconciliation activities to confirm accuracy of migrated records, balances, and transactional histories.
Stakeholder Management: Engage, influence, and manage relationships with stakeholders up to board level. Provide updates, risk assessments, and progress reports to steering committees and executive leadership.
Risk & Compliance Oversight: Ensure all migration activities adhere to compliance obligations, governance standards, and data security policies.
