Essential Skills and Experience: * Strong experience in mortgage migrations, including data mapping, lifecycle management, and reconciliation activities. * Proven ability to design and deliver Target Operating Models (TOMs) and process workflows. * Comprehensive knowledge of mortgage origination, servicing, and operations (including banking operations). * Experience working across multiple third-party providers and managing complex stakeholder relationships. * Advanced skills in data mapping, MI analysis, and attention to detail. * Deep understanding of mortgage regulations and compliance, including NCOBS. * Familiarity with API provision and its role in mortgage servicing. * Experience in process and system architecture is desirable.
