    • THE ICONIC

      Dec 2013 - May 2022

      My core responsibility was looking after the Shared Services space which comprised ERP, Finance, Data and Platform Infrastructure. My primary job was to manage, support and mentor the Product Owners and to ensure that the roadmaps lined up with the overall company strategy and offer support with key stakeholders and executives. I also played a major role in development of the Product Delivery Framework that was rolled out to the entire organisation. After 8.5 years, it's finally time to find a new challenge!Note: My official title was Product Manager, however it's more inline with a Group Manager at other organisations. Show less
