  • 1.  Using examples from a non finance position

    Hi

    I was a branch manager in my previous position. When I look at the PER requirements I can relate a lot of the practical experience to that role. Like managing internal and external stakeholders, leadership and growth mindset. I can I use some of my experience with this position to complete my PER?

    Hi Shelton,

    As long as your expereince has finance related aspects then yes you can use this in your PER.

    For example when giving your example regarding managing internal and external stakeholders, I'm sure you will have a number of examples to use but just remember to try and relate it to the overall financial performance of the organisation.

    Managing internal stakeholders could have led to process improvement which created cost savings or led to increased revenue being collected.

    In this community there are examples of what the assessors look for with some of the activities and behaviours so hoping this will help.
