Month-end and audit support: Supports month-end close, including reporting from various programs. Pulls and organizes accounts payable PBC documentation for the annual audit, including vendor invoices, bank remittances, and Navan transaction detail. Process automation: Uses the finance team’s automation tools for recurring, rules-based work, such as the weekly Technical Traffic bill upload, in place of manual entry. Validates automated outputs by reviewing exceptions, confirming totals tie to source files, and spot-checking posted records. Identifies and documents repetitive processes that could be automated.
