• Identify and fix historical misalignments in revenue or cost accounting in a controlled, auditable manner, and maintain written accounting positions to support audit readiness.
• Oversee the finance reporting process for the Mobility business end-to-end, aligning with process, data, and systems owners on design and governance while execution is delegated to country finance or SSC teams.
