Based within the Real Estate function and supporting the senior leadership team, initial stage of project was to identify and make available the true operating costs of the newly formed department resulting from a merger.

To achieve this and make information readily available to both the program team and senior leaders, I designed and implemented a self-serving reporting suite utilising Power BI. Throughout the program I am also required to maintain strong relationships with Finance, HR and IT in order to ensure savings are accurately documented, we remain compliant throughout our restructuring, and we are at the forefront in regard to available technology.
