• Communicate control deficiencies and improvement opportunities, influence stakeholders, and drive closure of remediation activities
• Lead identification, evaluation, and remediation of control gaps; ensure corrective actions are implemented, tested, and sustained
• Maintain a risk & controls backlog and monitor trends to prevent recurrence (root cause analysis, preventive controls)
• Develop dashboards and reporting on controls health (testing status, deficiencies, remediation aging)
• Provide clear executive updates and recommendations that balance risk, cost, and operational impact
• Identify, prioritize, and execute process improvements across Finance and adjacent functions using structured methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma concepts, standardization)
• Facilitate workshops to map as-is and to-be processes, define requirements, and align stakeholders on solutions
• Drive automation and simplification opportunities (workflow, controls automation, RPA, ERP features), ensuring control integrity is maintained or improved
• Establish KPIs and controls monitoring routines for critical processes (e.g., order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, record-to-report)
• Develop and deploy policies, SOPs, and training materials to standardize execution
• Participate in ERP and finance systems projects (upgrades, implementations, integrations), ensuring controls are embedded into design and testing
• Comply with FMI's attendance policies
