- Act as the R2R liaison for OneStream (close checklists, account reconciliation module, reporting) and for GL processes across the ERPs used by Network Companies.
- Represent R2R in future ERP and systems initiatives, including requirements, design, testing (UAT) and post-go-live stabilization.
- Identify and deliver automation, such as reconciliation tools, recurring entries and standardized templates.

- Clear communication: explains accounting issues to non-accountants, presidents and executives.
