• Collaboration: Collaborate effectively with shared service centers, corporate finance, regional tax, and treasury teams.
• Audit & Internal Controls: Maintain and enforce robust internal control policies across regional entities. Assist the Accounting Manager in coordinating internal and external audit deliverables for local and corporate audits.
• Process Optimization: Actively identify opportunities to standardize and automate accounting processes across countries.
• Stakeholder & Customer Management: Serve as a key escalation point for complex cross-border customer reconciliations, regional onboarding due diligence, and multi-country operational inquiries.

Qualifications:

• Technical & Tax Expertise: Deep expertise in Mexican electronic invoicing/tax regulations (CFDI 4.0) and working knowledge of Central American tax and statutory requirements. Solid proficiency in local GAAP and working knowledge of US GAAP and/or IFRS.
• Systems Experience: Hands-on experience with major ERP systems. Familiarity with multi-entity financial software and tools such as Workday, Coupa, or Graphite is highly desirable. Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
