• Stay up to date on business activities, technological trends and emerging risks, and information significant to the profession and industry.

• Detail oriented and able to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
• Experience and/or ability to embed data analytic and genAI, RPA or other automation tools in project execution to achieve high productivity.
• Possess a positive, can-do attitude; a self-starter promoting project ownership and responsibility for actions; exhibiting project management skills. Confident with no attitude.
• Flexible and adaptable to meet sudden non-routine and unstructured requests and investigations.
• Minimally, possess a Bachelor's degree in finance / accounting / management information systems and/or related field.
