By Joining Citi, you will become part of a global organisation whose mission is to serve as a trusted partner to our clients by responsibly providing financial services that enable growth and economic progress.

The successful candidate will be part of the GRU’s Strategic Ledger Implementation team. The team is responsible to perform end-to-end impact assessment of Strategic Ledger migration on the reconciliations, and to ensure Strategic Ledger provides all the required data without compromising reconciliations downstream. As such, this will require review of reconciliations landscape across operations Lines of Business (LOB), and coordination and partnership with stakeholders to design and map end-to-end processes and flows of transactions/events/journals to ensure appropriate impact assessment is completed. This entails close partnership with Change Management, Finance, and other Balance Sheet and Control teams. Post impact assessment, one will have to provide requirements to the Strategic Ledger Program (SLP) to ensure reconciliations don’t lose any critical data points, integrity, and subsequently there’s no increase in Manual Touch Points (MTP). Once in the implementation stage, participate in the working groups, testing, analysis and ultimately successful migration.
