• Translate financial data into business strategy for CEO, CFO and other stakeholders.
• Prepare ad-hoc reports as needed in support of sales effort.

Governance and Process Maturity* Improve upon an already established deal desk framework by implementing a change control process – e.g. if parameters change as part of client negotiations, ensure internal approvers are either informed or provided an opportunity to re-approve based on established thresholds.

• Improve upon an already established process to document key deal variables that are driven by client and internal assumptions.
• Review historical deal performance to identify price leakage and implement corrective actions.
• Partner with commercial operations leader to drive evolution of sales CRM in support of pipeline evaluation and sales growth.
