THE OPPORTUNITY

Innovative Medicine Transcend is a global business transformation program that will modernize our foundational Supply chain processes and harmonize them into one "clean" ERP as a standardized platform (S4 Hana) for growth and efficiency gains.

How YOU can help:

The key responsibilities & the impact YOU will have:

The Finance Compliance Manager is fully embedded in the IM Transcend program and serves as the integrated compliance and risk partner across the end-to-end transformation lifecycle.

The role safeguards successful program delivery by establishing and executing a holistic, risk-based compliance strategy across design, build, test, deployment, hypercare and transition to run state. It proactively identifies, assesses, monitors and mitigates financial, business process, technology and cross-program compliance risks; drives the program de-risking approach through stage gates, milestone reviews and transparent escalation; and provides leadership with clear risk insight to support informed go/no-go decisions.

The key responsibilities & the impact YOU will have:

• Own and execute the end-to-end IM Transcend compliance strategy, framework, roadmap and integrated plan across design, build, testing, deployment, hypercare and transition to run state.

• Operate as a fully embedded member of the program, partnering with Program Leadership, PMO, value streams, functional teams and deployment leads to embed compliance requirements into program governance, decisions, plans and delivery milestones.

• Lead the program de-risking approach by proactively identifying, assessing, prioritizing and monitoring end-to-end compliance risks, dependencies and control impacts across processes, data, technology, interfaces and deployments.

• Define and govern risk appetite, mitigation actions, ownership, escalation paths and stage-gate criteria; provide timely risk insight and recommendations to support leadership go/no-go and release-readiness decisions.

• Establish and maintain the integrated compliance package and traceability across the process taxonomy, risks, controls, reports, interfaces, requirements, test evidence and run-state documentation.

• Drive a risk-based SOX and finance compliance testing strategy, ensuring control requirements are designed into test scenarios, execution evidence is complete and deficiencies are remediated before release.

• Lead engagement with Global Audit & Assurance and external auditors, coordinating scope, milestone-based reviews, walkthroughs, evidence and remediation to sustain audit readiness throughout the program lifecycle.

• Provide concise, decision-oriented reporting to senior leadership on risk exposure, mitigation status, compliance milestones, audit observations, emerging issues and recommended actions.

• Coordinate ICFR, ISRM, UAM, Technology Quality, GxP and other compliance workstreams so that requirements are integrated consistently and gaps, overlaps and cross-program dependencies are actively managed.

• Drive standardization, control optimization and automation opportunities, and ensure compliance capabilities, ownership and documentation transition effectively to deployment and run-state teams.
