- Act as a power user for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, driving cleanup of legacy data and process improvements.
- Partner with AP/AR, support budgeting and KPI reporting, and prepare schedules and analyses for the CFO and PE stakeholders.

- Mid-market ERP experience (D365 Business Central or similar) and advanced Excel skills.
