• Drive alignment between Oracle ERP and group consolidation tools (HFM/Hyperion)

• Collaborate with redesign of transactional workstreams (e.g. Fixed Assets, Cash, AP/AR)

• Oversee U.S. government reporting requirements and SOX control design

• Mentor and grow a high-performing team (2-4+ direct reports); shape succession pipeline and performance culture
