• Leading relationships with third‑party vendors and implementation partners, overseeing contracts, licensing, service levels, and commercial performance.
• Ensuring enterprise systems support robust financial management, forecasting, planning, reporting, and analytics capabilities.
• Building and leading high‑performing teams, fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
