• Data-Driven Insights: Leverage analytical capabilities to analyze transactions to understand trends or finance operations executional performance to help shape and inform decisions. Prepare reports and presentations to enable stakeholders to best understand the plan and recommendations for relevant proposals

• Experience: 7-10 years of experience in management consulting, business operations & strategy in a technology-forward environment or equivalent internal consulting role
• Strong Understanding of Finance Organizations, Processes and Technology: A strong understanding of how finance teams are structured and the intersections of people, process, technology and data – you’re not afraid of diving deep into how those intersect together.
• Project Management: You don’t see project management as just focused on status reporting and updating the RAID log, you understand that it’s being a driving force to bring cross-functional teams together to secure a program’s target outcomes.
• Technical Proficiency: Equally strong and capable of Excel and Powerpoint and are able to create clean, clear but impactful presentations depending on the needs of the audience.
