• Translate analysis into concise, executive-ready materials; present a clear point of view and actionable recommendations to finance leaders and key stakeholders.
• Track agreed deliverables and, where implementation occurs during the program, assess outcomes against defined success measures and communicate results, risks, and follow-up actions.

• Working knowledge of financial statements, management reporting, financial planning processes, data governance, and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems.
• Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills, including the ability to explain complex analysis, challenge assumptions constructively, and influence stakeholder decisions.
• Ability to independently plan work, manage multiple priorities, resolve non-routine issues, work through ambiguity, and deliver accurate outputs within deadlines.
• Demonstrated ability to take ownership of a workstream, collaborate across functions, and move recommendations toward execution with limited supervision.
• Legally authorized to work in the U.S.
