  • Partner with Finance Systems and IT to translate business requirements into system enhancements, supporting implementation, testing, and AI-enabled automation

  • Lead cross-functional Finance process, technology, and compliance initiatives from problem identification and solution design through implementation and adoption

  • Develop and manage project plans, milestones, and dependencies, proactively addressing risks and communicating progress to leadership

  • Collaborate with Finance leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to align priorities, manage tradeoffs, and drive execution

  • Lead change management and policy rollouts, including stakeholder engagement, training, and adoption across Finance operations

  • Monitor compliance across corporate spend, procurement, and other Finance programs, identifying exceptions and driving process improvements and remediation

We're looking for someone who has:

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field

  • 6+ years of experience in finance and accounting operations, business process improvement, systems analysis, or finance transformation

  • Proven experience leading cross-functional projects, including process redesign, systems implementation, and change management

  • Strong process documentation and analytical skills, including process mapping, SOP development, and performance reporting

  • Proficiency with AI-assisted workflows and productivity tools, with demonstrated experience integrating AI into daily work

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with experience collaborating across global teams and influencing without direct authority

Nice to have:
