About

Flutter consists of two commercial divisions (FanDuel and International) and our central Flutter Functions; COO, Finance & Legal. Here in Flutter Functions we work with colleagues across all our divisions and regions to deliver something we call the Flutter Edge. It’s our competitive advantage, our ‘secret sauce’ which plays a key part in our ongoing success and powers our brands and divisions, through Product, Tech, Expertise and Scale.

In Flutter Finance we pride ourselves in providing global expertise to ensure Flutter is financially healthy. Utilising our Flutter Edge to turbo-charge our capabilities.

What You’ll Do

At Flutter we are embarking on an ambitious global finance transformation programme over the next three years. This finance transformation programme includes an ICFR pillar, as we look to ensure we are well-controlled as a finance organisation, in a sustainable manner.

To be successful in our ambition it will be critical to monitor that the IT elements of the finance transformation programme itself are well controlled and delivered according to Flutter’s policies around change programmes. The Projects & Change Controls Transformation Manager – IT will be responsible for supporting the programme to ensure that the relevant IT programme and change controls, are operated as and when required, providing a clear audit trail of how the transformational changes have been delivered in a well-controlled manner. The role also has a broader remit to ensure that other finance-impacting projects have appropriate change and programme controls in place for IT elements, ensuring that all relevant finance stakeholders are engaged at the right time. The Projects & Change Controls Manager – IT will principally report directly to the Projects & Change Controls Senior Manager.

Accountabilities & Responsibilities

• Support leading the day to day oversight of IT programme and change controls for the IT elements of the finance transformation programme, as well as taking responsibility for the embedding of IT programme and change controls in other finance-impacting projects.
• Support the development of sustainable processes that will naturally embed IT programme and change controls into future finance-impacting projects, by refining existing processes and creating new processes, if required. You may also be asked to support the day-to-day delivery of some other short-term or long-term transformation IT elements of the ICFR project plan.
• Manage components of the internal and external support, if appropriate, to deliver the specific elements of the ICFR project plan according to the planned costs and timetable.
• Report on the status of IT programme and change controls for the finance transformation programme to the Projects & Change Controls Senior Manager, highlighting clear areas where improvements need to be delivered in order for the finance transformation programme to be compliant.
• Develop regular project management reporting on the status of IT programme and change controls for other finance-impacting projects.
• Represent the Internal Controls Transformation project team in stakeholder discussions on the topic of IT programme and change controls with the broader finance transformation programme, or with the leadership of other finance-impacting projects.
• Highlight potential challenges or revisions necessary to scope, timetable, resources or dependencies to the Projects & Change Controls Senior Manager.
• Identify improvement opportunities within the specific elements of the ICFR project plan that you are managing, both short-term and long-term, for example process changes or the automation of a particular control.
• Collaborate with IT Controls Transformation peers delivering other specific IT elements of the ICFR project and with the Internal Controls team, who lead management’s testing activities.
• If necessary, prepare briefing documents for the Group’s external auditors on the IT elements of the ICFR project plan that you are managing. Prepare, or review, the documentation showing the effective operation of programme and change controls for IT elements of the finance transformation programme and other finance-impacting projects.
• Collaborate with the teams of other key internal stakeholders who have ownership in some or all of the ICFR project plan, the finance transformation programme and other finance-impacting projects, to deliver the necessary transformation and address concerns they may have. This is likely to include teams reporting to Divisional CFOs and Divisional CIOs, and other senior members of the Group Functions such as Tax and Treasury.
