  • Strong understanding of GAAP and financial reporting principles.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and drive alignment.
  • Experience building executive-level presentations and business cases.
  • Strong problem-solving, strategic thinking, and process improvement capabilities.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
