Responsibilities include overseeing all activities of a client’s financial operations for the accurate and timely dissemination of financial information and analysis, cash forecasting and management, strategic, operational, and tactical planning and counsel to clients’ senior management, business modeling, forecasting, metrics, budgeting, and financial support of managers and operating division of clients.
