• Stand in for the St. Paul controller when close cannot wait
• Carry the mid-level budget reforecast through three rounds of leadership review
• Build variance commentary executives actually read top to bottom
• Turn raw ledgers into forecasts the finance team can actually plan against
• Stand up the Accounts Receivable close calendar and hold every owner to it

• A track record of deeply-bought-in delivery in a freelance structure
• Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
• Real curiosity about why Mercedes-Benz customers do what they do
• A communicator who can disagree without making it personal
• A collaborative mindset and genuine enthusiasm for teamwork

Mercedes-Benz is the detail-loving St. Paul company that turned a niche finance obsession into something the whole MN now uses. Trust is the default setting at Mercedes-Benz; you have to actively spend it to lose it.
