- Track and analyze budget-to-actuals, providing actionable insights to program leads and executive staff for mid-course corrections.
- Establish and uphold strong internal control systems to safeguard the organizations assets and maintain donor and funder trust.
- Supervise and mentor the finance team, fostering a collaborative, mission-aligned team culture of excellence, integrity, and continuous improvement.
