Key Responsibilities of the role: 

• Own the end-to-end lifecycle of BPAY payments products and capabilities, from strategy and discovery through to delivery, optimisation and retirement.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to assess business opportunities, evaluate options and make informed, data-driven decisions.  
• Demonstrated success leading cross-functional teams and delivering complex initiatives using agile or contemporary product delivery practices, while balancing competing priorities and risks.
