The successful candidate will have effective analytical and communication skills, with an ability to build and articulate financial results and analytical insights to executive level business and finance leaders. You will be entrepreneurial by nature as Leo has a start‑up mentality, analytical in approach, have a demonstrated ability to develop financial models that provide intelligence for business decisions and be able to leverage your project management skills to lead simultaneous work streams.
