Not afraid to get into the details ; capable of interviewing staff, understanding line items, and asking “why” until things are clear.

Capable of influencing senior leadership, especially when tough decisions need to be made.
Experience with M&A, integrations, or multi-entity accounting is a plus.

Comfortable navigating dynamic priorities and ambiguous situations.
