  • Lead initiatives to enhance financial systems, ERP utilization, and reporting processes, driving greater automation, accuracy, and speed.
  • Support and advise business leaders and country finance teams, ensuring alignment of financial goals with operational strategies.
  • Participate in M&A due diligence, financial assessments, and integration projects as needed to support company expansion.

  • Proven experience managing regional finance operations and multi-entity reporting.
  • Expertise in ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite) and strong Excel and analytical skills.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to influence and explain financial concepts to non-finance stakeholders.

  • Why Join Us

  • Competitive compensation that reflects your impact and leadership.
  • Direct access to executive decision-making and strategic influence.
