Project and Systems Management Experience:•Involved in the implementation of new developments /processes within the Accounts Payable section – I carried out the National System/User Acceptance Testing consisting of Audit work on a new financial system carrying out various tests. I played a key role in its implementation ranging from software testing, system solutions, through to staff engagement and training. I have created and developed a large portfolio of work consisting of recording and maintaining accurate financial and system related data, informing higher management through compiling reports and statistics as well as liaising with other departments and Health Boards to gain further insight into the issues. I have built up vital knowledge and experience, learnt new skills in order to carry out this work and have had to pick up information fast in order for solutions to have been achieved and information to be communicated to my department/team efficiently and effectively. This has mainly been achieved by my creation of a departmental action plan consisting of all problems, possible solutions, tests, monitoring where each issue has a person responsible and a timeframe for resolution. This helps prioritise the issues, identifying the importance and urgency of each issue and aids in decisions that need to be considered not only in the short-term but are strategically beneficial in the long run. This action plan effectively aids planning and the delivery of solutions within a particular timeframe. This has been a huge system change for my department, enthusiasm and motivation has been essential to ensure all objectives are met despite the great obstacles that have been before us.
