You hold — or are working toward — a professional finance qualification such as CIMA, CPA, or ACCA.
You are a clear communicator, able to explain financial insights to both technical and non-financial colleagues.
You are proactive, adaptable, and comfortable navigating complexity in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
