- Prepare and compile support documentation for financial deliverables: analyses, reconciliations and key assumptions.

**Systems, Tools & Process Administration**

- Coordinate activities related to the administration and effective use of financial systems and planning/reporting tools (e.g., SAP and other FP&A tools).

- Support end-to-end financial controls required for system integration (including SAP): coordinate inputs, mappings/bridges and validate outputs during the transition phase.

- Maintain an in-depth understanding of internal client needs and continuously improve processes to meet or exceed them.

**Business Partnership & Communication**

- Participate in business reviews and regular meetings with cost centre managers and operational leaders to discuss forecasts and budgets, highlight major issues and propose corrective actions.
