What you’ll do

The Continuous Improvement Leader is accountable for driving process simplification, standardisation, and automation across Commercial Finance Operations, ensuring that close, forecasting, revenue recognition, and project finance processes are sustainable, scalable, and cadence‑safe.

The role acts as the change engine within CFOps, removing structural inefficiencies and manual work, and supporting other Commercial Finance pillars where process improvements enable better execution — without absorbing operational ownership.

1. Leads Continuous Improvement Across CFOps Core Processes

Drives Lean‑based improvement initiatives across close, forecasting, RevRec, and project finance processes

Identifies root causes of inefficiency, rework, and cadence risk

Ensures improvements are practical, adopted, and measurable

Impact: CFOps execution becomes simpler, faster, and more reliable.

1. Protects Cadence Through Process Design

Designs processes that withstand peak‑period pressure without heroics

Eliminates manual workarounds that threaten close and forecast integrity

Ensures improvements never compromise control, auditability, or timing

Impact: Cadence is protected by design, not effort.

1. Partners Across Commercial Finance Pillars on Process Enablement

Supports BP, Deal Desk, and COE pillars where process changes improve hand‑offs and execution quality

Clarifies interfaces, inputs, and outputs to reduce friction between pillars

Does not take ownership of pillar‑specific execution or decision support

Impact: Cleaner hand‑offs and fewer downstream fixes.

1. Drives Automation and System Enablement

Works with Finance Systems and IT to translate process improvements into system‑enabled solutions

Reduces reliance on spreadsheets, manual reconciliations, and ad‑hoc fixes

Ensures solutions scale across countries and ledgers

Impact: Sustainable improvements embedded in systems, not people.

1. Builds Continuous Improvement Capability

Establishes Lean ways of working, tools, and mindset within CFOps and broader commercial finance community

Coaches teams on problem‑solving and process thinking

Creates a repeatable improvement pipeline rather than one‑off projects

Impact: Continuous improvement becomes a capability, not an initiative.

Decision Rights & Boundaries

Owns Continuous improvement roadmap for CFOps processes; Lean methodology and execution for process transformation

Does not own Operational execution of close, forecast, or RevRec; Strategic business partnering or analytics; Deal governance or pricing decisions
