Notice Title

The Provision of Digital Development & Automation for Air Finance

Notice Description

Air Finance are focused on identifying areas where existing financial and business processes involving manual effort that are time consuming and inefficient can be automated to make better use of resource by allowing it to be redirected to other tasks where it can add much more significant value. To that end the function is looking to build on the existing knowledge within the function by bringing in external technology/digital SMEs to provide guidance on the tools/technology available and where this could be used in existing processes to improve them through automation. The aim would then be to leverage these digital/technological solutions (either through internal upskilling or external assistance) to enable faster and smarter decision making across the Finance function to deliver more effective support to the operational output of the RAF.
