Ability to distinguish business ownership and governance responsibilities from technical platform and engineering responsibilities. Strong facilitation skills and the ability to drive decisions across stakeholders with different priorities. Demonstrated ability to create detailed, usable deliverables with limited existing documentation or structure. Strong written communication skills with the ability to produce both detailed working documentation and executive-level summaries. Experience working in a consulting, transformation, or contractor environment where measurable deliverables and knowledge transfer are required. Ability to operate independently in an ambiguous, fast-moving, greenfield environment. Preferred Qualifications Experience with SAP S/4HANA Finance and related financial data structures, consolidation, or group reporting (e.g., ACDOCA, ACDOCU).
