* Strong Excel / data skills, ideally with Power BI or similar reporting tools.
* Keen to map out data flows and able to demonstrate interest and experience in applying AI tools in a finance context.
* Experience with accounting software (NetSuite experience preferable).

Finance & Business Skills
* A keen interest in developing a long‑term career in finance and accounting.
* Minimum of 2-3 years of experience in a finance or accounting role.
* Knowledge of accounting principles and financial regulations, including compliance considerations when introducing AI.

Transformation & Change Skills
* Process mapping and redesign – identify what to automate, augment or eliminate.
* Be an Agent Builder – drive initiatives from idea to implementation.
* Strong communication skills to gain Stakeholder engagement – able to explain AI concepts to engage the finance and cross‑functional teams on the journey to change and improve.
Mindset and Behaviours
* Must be fluent in English; proficiency in Italian and Spanish would be an advantage.
* Must be able to work to European time zone hours of 9am‑5pm.
* Accurate attention to detail, with strong communication and teamwork skills.
