  • Prepare key reports in a timely manner for Finance, Compliance, and Management teams, including regulatory reporting requirements.
  • Partner with cross-functional stakeholders to improve reporting accuracy, operational visibility, and decision-making processes.
  • Support strategic initiatives through ad hoc analysis, scenario planning, and performance evaluation.
