• Facilitate collaboration across business, Finance, and Legal teams to ensure projects meet operational, compliance, and governance requirements.

• Proven ability to evaluate business processes and recommend strategies to streamline operations and improve efficiency (e.g., Lean Six Sigma methodologies).
• Experience partnering with Finance and Legal teams to support initiatives involving governance, financial oversight, regulatory requirements, or operational controls.
• Background in management consulting, professional services, or internal consulting roles, with experience advising stakeholders on business process improvements and strategic initiatives.
• Strong project and/or program management experience with a solid understanding of the full project lifecycle.
• Experience in risk management and investigations, with the ability to apply sound judgment and provide thoughtful consultation on business process improvements.
