Responsibilities

Lead AI-enabled finance transformation initiatives by identifying, assessing, and prioritizing high-value opportunities to apply artificial intelligence, automation, analytics, and workflow redesign across Enterprise Accounting and related Finance functions.
Partner with accounting, reporting, tax, audit, Finance Technology, Analytics, and business stakeholders to understand current-state workflows, pain points, control requirements, data dependencies, and desired business outcomes.
Translate finance needs into clear AI and automation use cases, business requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, test plans, data requirements, control considerations, and implementation roadmaps.
Design future-state finance workflows that integrate AI-enabled support for activities such as journal entry preparation, reconciliations, variance analysis, close task management, document review, policy research, exception routing, and reporting support.
Manage and own the full lifecycle of AI models and solutions from development through deployment.
Develop, coordinate, and support prototypes, pilots, and proof-of-concept solutions using approved enterprise AI, automation, analytics, workflow, and data tools.
Evaluate AI-enabled outputs for accuracy, completeness, usability, control alignment, and appropriate human review, ensuring solutions support finance judgment rather than replacing required accounting review and approval.
Embed responsible AI, risk, compliance, information security, privacy, auditability, and internal control expectations into solution design, documentation, testing, monitoring, and sustainment activities.
Collaborate with technical teams to support data mapping, workflow configuration, prompt or instruction design, solution testing, defect resolution, user acceptance testing, release readiness, and post-implementation stabilization.
Define and track measurable business value, including reduced manual effort, improved close cycle time, increased standardization, enhanced control consistency, improved audit readiness, error reduction, and user adoption.
Lead cross-functional working sessions to clarify scope, align stakeholders, prioritize requirements, resolve issues, manage dependencies, and guide decision-making from concept through implementation.
Prepare and maintain process documentation, control narratives, solution documentation, standard operating procedures, testing evidence, training materials, and implementation communications.
Support change management and adoption by equipping Finance users with clear guidance, training, feedback channels, operating procedures, and post-launch support for AI-enabled workflows.
