- Rebuild and configure client business logic inside Limelight's dynamic cloud ecosystem, ensuring absolute structural integrity and data stability.
- Map complex charts of accounts, cost centers, and dimensional data structures from top-tier ERP and accounting systems (e.g., NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics, Workday).
C-Suite Advisory & Business Partnering- Lead engaging discovery workshops and scoping sessions with external corporate finance stakeholders to diagnose data bottlenecks and redefine their strategic reporting workflows.
- Act as a trusted financial expert, guiding defensive or skeptical stakeholders through process improvements and modern budgeting best practices.
- Collaborate with cross-functional technical and implementation teams to ensure client business requirements translate flawlessly to final product delivery.

- Advanced, battle-tested financial modeling capabilities, with a deep comfort level designing integrated 3-statement models and driver-based logic from scratch.
- Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with a demonstrated ability to manage difficult stakeholder dynamics and interface directly with C-suite executives.
- Technical curiosity with elite command of Excel; direct exposure to relational data structures, financial systems, or business intelligence tools (Power BI, Tableau) is highly valued.
