What this position is about - Purpose:
JT Group generates a substantial amount of Foreign Exchange (FX) exposures from daily business activities. Annually, JT Group has
~ $10Bn of FX exposure from more than 50+ currency pairs. In addition, shorter-term FX exposures from Accounts Receivables and Payables add an additional ~$3Bn of exposures annually.

  FX Risk Management: Manage the global (including Japan) Commercial Balance sheet Hedging program.

Understanding the exposures, i.e. the payment terms for each items, the reasons for using a particular billing currency, the pattern of the payment terms per currency per entity per exposure type, are necessary.

-
Project Management: Coordinate all SAP improvement activities on FX Risk management to enhance the entire FX hedging program. FX exposures evolve across all the entities as business models change. To align hedging programs to the business, and to new hedging strategies, we must constantly adjust our hedging programs. IT modifications are always necessary.
