• Provide subject‑matter insights on transaction flows, system behaviour, reference data structures and end‑to‑end loan lifecycle logic.
• Identify data quality issues and operational risks during migration, supporting the development of remediation plans.
• Support functional and data mapping between current and target systems, ensuring the technical teams correctly understand business rules.

Change & Transformation Delivery

• Support planning and execution of system migrations, including data validation, reconciliation and cutover readiness.
• Assist with defining requirements, documenting process gaps, and creating business documentation for system changes.
• Work closely with client teams to understand pain points and translate operational experience into practical recommendations.

Testing & Quality Assurance

• Support SIT and UAT cycles by validating functionality, workflows and data behaviour in Loan IQ/ACBS environments.
• Create and execute test scenarios based on real operational knowledge.
• Log, track, and help resolve defects, ensuring system build aligns with business needs.

Stakeholder & Client Engagement

• Work with client SMEs, technology teams and PwC project managers to ensure clarity of requirements and project deliverables.
• Communicate findings, risks, issues and dependencies clearly and professionally.
• Present updates, analysis and recommendations to internal and external stakeholders.

Analysis & Reporting

• Use strong Excel and analytical skills to support data analysis, gap assessments, reconciliation logic and MI/reporting.
• Analyse large datasets to identify mismatches or migration defects and provide insights to solution design teams.
