Key Responsibilities
Strategy and roadmap
Define and maintain the FP&A digital reporting and capability diffusion roadmap in line with business priorities, including management reporting, self-service analytics, reporting excellence, and future-ready insight generation.
Translate FP&A and business requirements into actionable reporting, analytics, and technology initiatives with clear outcomes and success measures.
Prioritize a balanced portfolio of BAU improvements, quick wins, strategic projects, and long-term capability building.
Delivery and product leadership
Lead end-to-end delivery of reporting and analytics solutions, from requirements gathering and solution design through testing, release, adoption, and operational stabilization.
Ensure solutions are reliable, scalable, secure, and aligned to business and control requirements, including critical and SOX-relevant reporting where applicable.
Partner closely with engineering, data, product, and architecture stakeholders to align solutions to the right tooling, architecture, and governance standards.

Design and execute adoption strategies that ensure new reporting tools, dashboards, semantic models, and self-service capabilities are not only launched but meaningfully used by FP&A teams.
Act as the finance-side interpreter between business users and technical teams, translating complex concepts in both directions and ensuring solutions stay anchored in real decision-making needs.
Build credibility and value realization through usage tracking, feedback loops, business validation, and linking outputs to efficiency gains and better decisions.
Data literacy and change leadership
Coach FP&A teams in the use of digital tools, self-service platforms, and data products, helping raise data literacy and confidence through embedded enablement rather than standalone training.
Apply structured change management and strong storytelling to drive engagement, reduce resistance, and create momentum behind FP&A transformation.
Foster a culture of continuous improvement, data-centric decision-making, and pragmatic experimentation across finance.
Stakeholder and people leadership
Serve as a key contact for senior stakeholders on roadmap, progress, risks, trade-offs, adoption, and value realization.
