Key Responsibilities

1) Process Design, Workflow Optimization, and Analytics Enablement

• Develop enhanced variance and financial analytics that surface drivers, exceptions, and trends through automated reporting and dashboards.

2) Automation, Reporting Tools, and AI Enablement

• Build and maintain automated workflows using Alteryx, Power Automate, Power BI, and scripting to eliminate manual steps, remove handoffs, and improve reliability.

• Support testing and adoption activities by helping define test scenarios, coordinating UAT participation, and capturing feedback/issues for resolution.
• Contribute to training enablement by organizing documentation repositories and supporting ongoing reference materials.

4) Quality and Controls

• Operate with a quality-first mindset: perform validation checks, maintain clear audit trails where required, and follow defined standards to reduce rework.
• Continuously identify improvement opportunities and propose incremental improvements that shift time from low-value repetitive steps to higher-value analysis.
• Document and share lessons learned to help scale improvements and avoid repeat issues across similar processes.

5) Collaboration and Continuous Improvement

• Partner closely with business users to understand needs, communicate progress, and deliver solutions aligned to department goals.
• Coordinate deliverables and updates in the tools and formats that best support the team (Excel, email, meetings, tracking lists), ensuring transparency and follow-through.
• Support teammates’ process improvement efforts by providing hands‑on assistance with their initiatives, including office hours, targeted training, and project‑level support; mentor and enable peers pursuing Six Sigma certification.

• Ability to understand and document business processes and translate them into automated solutions.
• Strong Excel skills (data cleanup, pivots, formulas); comfort working with large datasets and performing tie-outs/validation.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills; ability to document work in a structured, consistent, and repeatable manner.

Highly Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with VBA scripting, SharePoint, and/or SQL.
• Working understanding of financial concepts and systems such as SAP and BOBJ.
