• Working Capital Optimization: Collaborate with AR and AP departments to monitor and improve the cash conversion cycle and operational liquidity.
• Liquidity Stress Testing: Execute scenario-based modeling to evaluate the impact of strategic initiatives and/or operational changes to the company’s cash position.
• Treasury Support: Assist with bank relationship management, credit facility covenant compliance, and intercompany funding processes.
• Financial Modeling & Analysis: Maintain integrated 3-statement models (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) and work with the FP&A team to ensure that forecasts are accurately incorporated into long-term financial plans.
• Team Collaboration: Coordinate with the broader FP&A team to provide variance analysis and relevant plans and forecasts as required by the CFO and C-Suite.
