Key responsibilities include ownership of planning calendars and processes, forecasting models, business rules, chart of accounts governance, reference data management, security and user access administration, UAT leadership, and Finance-facing system support. Acting as the primary liaison between Finance and IT, you will drive platform enhancements, automation initiatives, and roadmap priorities while leading a small team responsible for system operations, data validation, and reporting support.
