This is primarily an individual contributor role, supported by 1 or 2 financial analysts.

- Strategic Projects:
- Lead financial analysis / modeling for assigned strategic projects with regional or international scope or outside a ‘business as usual’ remit (e.g. strategic investments, new launches / expansion, inorganic opportunities)
