Senior Controls Transformation Manager - (12mth Contract)

Hi, we’re PEXA

Every time a house is bought, sold or refinanced in Australia your lawyer, conveyancer and lender will most likely use a digital platform to settle your property, this is where we come in. PEXA’s world-first digital settlement platform has revolutionised the way we exchange property in Australia helping over 20,000 people a week safely settle their homes.

Since starting our journey in 2010, we now employ a team of over 1,000 people working across multiple continents.

That’s why, we’re looking for ambitious people like yourself to join the team.

A day in the life

Take a fresh look at complex, often manual business processes and ask the fundamental questions: How does this work today? Where are the risks? What does good look like? And how can we make it better?

Working across PEXA—including Product, Technology, Regulatory, Finance and Operations—you’ll bring teams together to map processes, identify control gaps and design practical improvements. The focus will be on simplifying controls, reducing manual effort, introducing automation and improving how controls are monitored.

The role also partners closely with process owners, control owners and senior leaders to translate regulatory obligations into controls that work in practice. This means listening, constructively challenging existing approaches and helping teams embed sustainable changes into their day-to-day work.

• End-to-end process mapping, redesign and controls transformation
• Business process and technology control design

What success looks like (6–12 months):

• Mapping current processes and identifying control gaps, duplication and manual effort
• Designing simpler and more effective controls that are embedded into business processes
• Progressing opportunities for automation and continuous monitoring
