I lead front-to-back finance platform transformations across Murex, reporting automation, and regulated Treasury.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I've led front-to-back finance transformation at UBS, delivering a global Murex MX.3 platform across legal entities on time and within a $2bn budget.
I combine hands-on business analysis with product ownership, translating Front Office, Risk, Finance, and Technology requirements into Murex booking, SAP General Ledger integration, IFRS 9 controls, data pipelines, and delivery roadmaps. My work has streamlined architecture through four legacy-system decommissions, cutting infrastructure overhead by 35%.
More recently, I transformed financial cost reporting for around 3,000 UBS users through a Power BI roadmap, delivering $500k in annual licence savings and introducing AI-generated commentary and self-service analytics. I also led analysis supporting the liquidation roadmap for a 53-site global real estate portfolio valued at more than $1.8bn.
