- Reviewing the financial control environment of each entity and driving improvements where gaps are identified;
- Leading, coaching and developing the Senior Finance Accountant team, including performance management and career development;
- Raising risks and issues to senior stakeholders with clear recommendations, and driving process standardisation and improvement across the international portfolio.
- Reviewing statutory survey & national statistic submissions for international entities
