* Identify and deliver opportunities for smarter procurement, outsourcing, or contract renegotiation to reduce spend.
* Work on forecasting, planning, and scenario modeling – e.g., pricing changes, vendor management strategies.
* Collaborate with the Finance Director and Retail Director to align reporting standards.
* Assist with the implementation of payment and billing systems, particularly for corporate clients using RVS services.
* Introduce best practices in commercial operations – ideally with experience from a vendor/seller perspective.

Skills: Advanced Excel skills—ideally with experience automating data handling and analysis processes; AI-savvy—hands-on experience with tools like ChatGPT, Power BI AI visuals, CoPilot, or automation platforms; strong interpersonal skills; experience leading finance modernization/automation; commercial mindset involving pricing, scenario modeling, and investment thinking.
