• Partner with the CFO to develop scalable global treasury practices that support the firm's liquidity needs and growth strategy.
• Lead the continued evolution and standardization of billing processes across audit, tax, and consulting services, including fixed fee, milestone, and subscription‑based billing.
• Establish meaningful performance metrics and dashboards to monitor the effectiveness of accounting operations.
• Lead, develop, and mentor a team of approximately 13 accounting professionals, including two direct reports.
• Establish clear expectations, accountability, and development opportunities while fostering a collaborative, high‑performing team.
