Financial Performance Oversight:

  • Directly assist with key FP&A analysis to ensure alignment of financial goals with overall business objectives and monitor financial performance, including budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis.

  • Proven ability to adapt to various levels of responsibilities with ability to quickly pivot from executive leadership to tactical partnership and support of different business functions / front line staff

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships and influence at all levels of the organization
