- Contribute to the continuous improvement of financial processes, controls, and reporting standards.
- Develop and maintain trial operations KPIs and measures that link operational performance to financial outcomes (e.g., enrollment pace vs. burn, milestone progress vs. revenue, site activity vs. cost).
- Leverage Excel and Power BI to create scalable dashboards and analyses that support portfolio governance and executive review.
- Translate complex financial and operational data into clear, actionable insights for non-finance stakeholders.
- Act as a trusted finance partner to Clinical Solutions department heads, supporting planning, performance reviews, and strategic initiatives.
- Prepare and deliver high-quality presentations and executive-ready materials summarizing portfolio performance, risks, and recommendations.
- Support ad hoc analyses and special projects requested by Finance leadership, Clinical Operations leadership, or executive management.
- Collaborate closely with Project Management, Clinical Operations, Data Management, and Finance teams to ensure alignment between operational execution and financial reporting.

- Working knowledge of Power BI or similar BI/visualization tools.
- Strong presentation and communication skills, with experience presenting to senior leaders and department heads.
- Solid understanding of clinical trial financial drivers, project lifecycles, and contract/budget mechanics.
