  • Serve as the quality gate on the global financial package before it reaches SVP Finance, reviewing for accuracy, completeness, and narrative quality
  • Build a culture of proactive business partnership within NA finance shifting from reactive reporting to insight generation and executive-ready storytelling

Client & Revenue Intelligence
  • Own the NA client health framework: monitor revenue concentration, profitability, renewal risk, and expansion opportunity across the portfolio; conduct quarterly analysis and present gaps, bright spots, and recommended actions to NA leadership
  • Lead client-level margin analysis in partnership with CBU SVPs; identify margin compression and drive action on pricing, staffing optimization, and SOW restructuring
  • Partner with Sales and Delivery leadership on deal structuring and pricing for strategic opportunities, ensuring margin discipline is embedded early in the revenue cycle
  • Support revenue recognition oversight with the Finance Business Partner to ensure ASC 606 compliance and forecast accuracy
