• Financial Close & Consolidation
  • Lead the end-to-end global financial close and consolidation process using Oracle Financial Consolidation and Close Cloud Service (FCCS), ensuring accuracy and adherence to tight reporting deadlines.
  • Serve as the subject-matter expert for Oracle FCCS — managing system configurations, intercompany eliminations, currency translations, and chart-of-accounts mappings across all legal entities.
  • Partner with regional controllers and accounting teams to resolve consolidation issues and drive consistency in close procedures worldwide.
  • Develop and maintain close calendars and variance analyses to keep stakeholders informed throughout the cycle.
• Cash Flow Reporting & Forecasting
  • Oversee the preparation of the consolidated Cash Flow in compliance with US GAAP.

• Balance Sheet Review & Senior Leadership Reporting
  • Lead the consolidated balance sheet review process, performing in-depth analysis of account balances, trends, and fluctuations across all global entities on a monthly and quarterly basis.
  • Prepare and present clear, executive-ready balance sheet commentary and variance analysis to senior leadership, highlighting key movements, risks, and areas requiring follow-up.
  • Partner with regional controllers and accounting teams to ensure balance sheet accounts are properly reconciled, supported, and in compliance with US GAAP and company policy.
  • Proactively identify balance sheet risks or anomalies and work cross-functionally to resolve issues ahead of external reporting deadlines.
• Reporting Center of Excellence & Chart of Accounts Governance
  • Lead and evolve the Reporting Center of Excellence (CoE), establishing standardized processes, best practices, and toolkits that drive consistency and quality across global finance teams.
  • Define and enforce governance frameworks for the global Chart of Accounts (CoA), ensuring structural integrity, alignment with business needs, and compliance with US GAAP and internal policy.
  • Partner with regional finance leaders, business unit controllers, and IT to evaluate and approve requests for new accounts, cost centers, or structural changes — maintaining a clean, scalable CoA architecture.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives within the CoE, leveraging data, stakeholder feedback, and industry benchmarks to identify and prioritize enhancements to the close and reporting ecosystem.
• AI Integration & Process Innovation
  • Champion the adoption of AI and automation tools within the financial close process — identifying high-impact opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve accuracy, and accelerate timelines.
  • Collaborate with Finance Technology and IT teams to evaluate, pilot, and scale AI-enabled solutions (e.g., anomaly detection, variance analysis, predictive cash flow modeling).
  • Build and document AI-enhanced workflows, ensuring robust controls and auditability are maintained as new technologies are introduced.
  • Stay current on emerging AI capabilities in financial reporting and proactively bring best-practice recommendations to senior leadership.
• Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Partnership
