  • Provide decision support through scenario planning and trade-off analysis; surface risks/opportunities with clear recommendations.
  • Build decision-quality analyses for investments, initiatives, and scope changes (value framing, sensitivities, assumptions).
  • Lead budget, forecast, and outlook for the assigned perimeter; deliver monthly performance reporting and variance insights tied to drivers and actions.

  • Ensure adherence to financial policies, internal controls, and documentation standards; support audit readiness as needed.

Requirements
