  • Journal Entries: Prepare eliminations and allocations journal entries as part of the monthly/quarterly consolidation close.
  • Stakeholder Support: Respond to ad hoc requests from Finance leadership, other Finance teams, and auditors.
  • AI Champion: Partner with the Senior Manager to identify, test, and help roll out AI and automation tools that reduce manual effort in close, consolidation, and reporting workflows.
  • Special Projects: Support AI and efficiency project work and other special projects assigned by the Senior Manager, Operations & Consolidations.

  • Technical Proficiency: Strong Excel skills; comfort working with account-level GL detail.
  • Analytical Skills: Ability to summarize account-level detail into clear, audit-ready explanations.
  • Organization: Highly organized, comfortable owning a recurring calendar/deadline structure across multiple stakeholders.
