The Strategic Ledger (SL) Initiative has been established under the wider Citi Finance Transformation and comprises three pillars - Accounting, Ledgers and Close, and associated global platforms, processes, and governance. The program includes standardizing and reducing risk across current Financial Books and Records (FB&R) processes and establishing the next iteration of ledger strategy to adopt and implement global standard SaaS / Cloud based accounting and ledger platforms (the “Strategic Ledger”). The outcome will be a robust global process, governance, and controls to ensure consistent and materially accurate, complete, and timely ledger data and results.

  • Establish a robust maintenance process of learning resources to reflect changes in system and related processes following future system implementations.
  • Introduce a rigorous Continuous Improvement approach to existing users to enable the established user base to be regularly updated and upskilled after each Quarterly Release.
  • Present status of change implementation regularly in a structured way to demonstrate progress, risks and issues.
  • Facilitate engagement sessions, maintaining a positive and inclusive environment, and adapting delivery methods to accommodate different adoption styles and participant needs.
  • Maintain administrative requirements to track adoption readiness, which may include issue tracking, training records and reports, tracking participation, effectiveness, and impact on employee performance.
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of change implementation solutions through assessments, feedback surveys, and other evaluation methods, and make necessary improvements to enhance change intervention outcomes.
  • Manage a team responsible for development, maintenance and roll out of training resources which may include permanent Citi employees, third-party consultants and matrixed employees from other Citi functions, for example L&D.
  • Provide one-on-one coaching and mentoring to employees to reinforce learning and promote skill application in the workplace.
