• Help prepare materials for the annual audit and ad-hoc requests - including drafting of valuation memos, supporting external valuation consultants, and assisting in the deployment of the key metrics survey to gather annual portfolio reporting data.

Process Automation & Improvement

• Identify opportunities to automate repetitive portfolio and finance workflows, such as data reconciliation, reporting templates, and dashboards for more reliable portfolio insights.
• Partner with the finance and platform teams to pitch, test, and deploy automation solutions that reduce manual effort and improve accuracy - including new Claude skills for the broader worldwide team to utilize.
