• Reporting & KPI Dashboarding: Prepare recurring Monthly and Quarterly Business Review (MBR/QBR) materials, KPI scorecards, and executive reporting packages on synergy progression.

• Analytical Problem‑Solving: Ability to dissect non‑standard processes, reconcile data anomalies, and standardize non‑transactional financial treatments.
