    • Experience with international wire transfers, SWIFT messaging, and correspondent banking
    • Understanding of segregation of duties and internal controls in payment environments
    • Ability to design review frameworks and standardized workflows
    • Strong communication skills - vendor relations, internal escalation, and cross-functional coordination
    • Ability to lead operationally without formal direct-report authority
    • Proficiency with Microsoft Excel
    • Law firm or professional services environment with matter-based accounting (preferred)
