Embedded in Delivery Cadence

  • Attend sprint ceremonies, program, and project management meetings

  • Translate discussions into structured updates across Jira and documentation tools

  • Document workflows, dependencies, and controls in Confluence
  • Ensure consistency between documented processes and system tracking

Qualifications

  • 5 to 8 years of experience in Jira administration and support
  • Prior experience at a Big 4 accounting or consulting firm (Deloitte, PwC, EY, KPMG)
  • Experience supporting large-scale system implementations (ERP, finance systems, or transformation programs)
