Team Leadership & Development: Lead, coach, and develop both direct and cross‑functional team members, fostering engagement and alignment with corporate financial objectives. Planning & Prioritization: Oversee departmental planning, including budgeting for insurance programs and personnel, while effectively prioritizing initiatives and resources. Strategic Support: Support the Treasurer and broader leadership team on strategic initiatives, including risk‑related aspects of M&A activities.
