  • Implement and manage synergy tracking and value realization mechanisms
  • Codify repeatable finance integration playbooks to improve speed, quality, and predictability
  • Act as the control tower across concurrent initiatives and Ensure the right work is resourced and sequenced appropriately across teams
  • Drive execution across multiple complex, cross-functional programs simultaneously
  • Hold teams accountable while maintaining strong cross-functional relationships
  • Ensure high-quality documentation, decision logs, and scalable processes
  • Centralization and coordination for Finance-related initiatives (M&A, NPIs, strategic projects)
  • Define criteria (impact, risk, effort, strategic alignment)
  • Provide visibility into pipeline and tradeoffsFacilitate prioritization discussions with Finance leadership
  • Help stand up and evolve the Finance bizops function and define best practices and processes for:
