Strong expertise in balance sheet management, financial accounting, and governance.
Proven ability to apply financial judgement and provide commercial insight in complex environments.
Experience working within centralised or shared service finance models.
Strong knowledge of IFRS and financial reporting requirements.
Proven stakeholder management and influencing capability across finance and business leadership.
Experience with ERP platforms such as Sage, Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) and close/reporting tools (e.g., BlackLine, IBM Planning Analytics). Experience in implementing ERP systems is highly advantageous.
