- Experience leading at least 2 direct reports, plus at least 5 indirect reports (i.e. leading managers). An eye for talent and bringing out the best in each individual
- Foundational training in a multi-national public practice accounting firm
- Exposure to M&A is an asset, particularly post-acquisition integration
