  • Develop and deliver end-user training, job aids, and documentation, and provide ongoing coaching to finance teams to ensure proficient use of F&O and associated processes.
  • Build and maintain a knowledge base and FAQ resources that enable concise, consistent resolution of recurring system issues.
  • Manage ad-hoc projects including system modifications, configuration changes, IT compliance, archiving, and other initiatives as required across the business units.
