Meet Harish, an IT Finance Business Partner Lead

Meet Harish, an IT Finance Business Partner Lead

It’s been nearly 10 years since I joined Aviva on the graduate scheme.

Harish Rana

IT Finance Business Partner Lead

Aviva

This might seem a long time, but it has really flown by. Choosing Aviva back then was a bit of a close call. I had offers from a couple of other competitors. The clear stand out issue that swayed me to join Aviva was a combination of work-life balance and the finance scheme itself.

The opportunity to move to different cities across different businesses, including the opportunity to move globally, was a key factor.

I have had numerous roles including being the Business Manager to the UK Chief Operating Officer. That was a tough role with a steep learning curve, but the most rewarding opportunity! I now lead the IT Finance Business Partnering team.
