  • Process Improvement: Identify operational inefficiencies and recommend cost-control measures to maximize profit margins.
  • Financial Reporting: Support month-end and year-end close processes, including journal entries and account reconciliations. Prepare margin analysis reports by product or department to support strategic pricing decisions.
  • Audit Support: Maintain audit schedules and provide necessary documentation for both internal and external audits.
