- Conduct ad-hoc financial analyses and build financial models as required to inform teams on operating strategies and recommendations and to support our growing global business
- Drive process improvements through AI and automation to streamline recurring workflows, processes, and deliverables
- Collaborate with cross-functional partners across Procurement/Sourcing, Accounting, People, Talent, IT, and Corporate Finance, developing the skills to navigate ambiguity, ask thoughtful questions, and continuously improve processes

- Demonstrated ability to produce high-quality work under tight deadlines and manage multiple competing priorities, while maintaining extremely high standards for attention to detail
- Excellent communication and executive presence with strong interpersonal soft skills that can collaborate effectively and build trust across teams
- A “get it done” attitude - strong sense of ownership and accountability, using a proactive approach to learn, improve, and drive work forward
- Nice to have: Familiarity with financial planning tools (e.g. Anaplan, Pigment), ERP systems (e.g. Netsuite), and SQL
