- CPA designation (or equivalent); MBA or CFA considered a strong asset.
- Advanced Excel skills (macros, dynamic modelling) and hands-on experience with ERP and FP&A platforms such as NetSuite or Vena.
- Proven ability to build financial models from the ground up and communicate complex financial data clearly to non-finance stakeholders.
