    Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
    I recently collaborated with Bluejay, an AI financial services software platform, where my role involved crafting a comprehensive go-to-market business development plan for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.In the course of developing the plan, I strategically identified market segments and key targets, formulated an effective marketing strategy, created compelling presentation materials, and executed detailed financial forecasting for the year 2024. The culmination of these efforts resulted in setting an ambitious sales target of $5.5 million.Bluejay's i-Control Risk suite, a pivotal component of their offerings, stands out for its unique capability to predict operational and compliance control stress. This predictive ability surpasses conventional methods of identifying control weaknesses or failures, allowing for early intervention. The integration of leading indicators of stress with actionable recommendations provides a crucial time window, empowering accountable individuals to proactively address potential control issues. In the current regulatory landscape, particularly with the Financial Accountability Regime exerting pressure on Financial Institution Executives, Bluejay's solutions offer a valuable layer of assurance.
