A day in the life

In this role, you'll focus on delivering our foreign exchange and Treasury accounting transformation initiatives.

You'll facilitate user acceptance testing cycles, collaborate with external vendors on implementation timelines, and work through complex multi-entity accounting structures.

Throughout the week, you'll partner with Treasury, Tax, and FinTech teams to align on priorities, troubleshoot challenges, and communicate progress to senior leadership. Your work bridges the gap between business requirements and technical solutions, ensuring our teams have the tools and processes they need to succeed.
