• Serve as a senior accounting advisor on strategic investments, acquisitions, joint ventures, and partnerships
• Lead assessments of potential impairment indicators and asset recoverability

• Lead the accounting assessment of complex treasury and operating matters
• Lead the development of concise, evidence-backed technical accounting memoranda and position papers
• Own the end-to-end translation of defensible accounting conclusions into journal entries, close procedures, footnote disclosures, data requirements, clear ownership, and repeatable control activities

• Provide senior review of financial metrics and external-facing analyses
• Partner with Financial Reporting and Internal Controls leaders to strengthen disclosure controls, SOX/ICFR readiness, impairment-trigger monitoring, annual and interim assessment controls, audit trails, valuation and financial statement tie-outs, and subsequent-event assessments
• Lead high-priority, cross-functional strategic transactions spanning accounting-policy implementation, operating-model changes, legal-entity matters, systems or process improvements, and other non-routine corporate initiatives
• Design and institutionalize pragmatic accounting policies, playbooks, decision frameworks, and automation that improve consistency, strengthen organizational capability, preserve independent judgment, faithfully represent economic substance, and escalate unresolved issues promptly
