• We're looking for someone who can investigate a difficult FI-CA production problem, understand its financial implications, work with technical teams on the solution, and then clearly explain the outcome to business and Finance stakeholders.
• You should be comfortable working in a production-support environment where priorities can change quickly and where strong judgment, ownership, communication, and attention to detail are important.
