- Support property valuations, refinancing, debt covenant analysis, and liquidity planning as needed.
- Ensure financial planning and reporting processes are consistent with gaming regulatory standards and internal controls.
- Partner with compliance, internal audit, and external auditors to support regulatory reviews and financial disclosures.
- Maintain data integrity and documentation for regulated gaming activities and reporting requirements.
- Lead, mentor, and develop the FP&A team, fostering a high-performance, analytical culture.
