- Ensure proactive management of renewals and obligations

Corporate/Statutory Records & Financial Controls
- Maintain corporate records and support routine governance administration (e.g., preparing standard member/shareholder resolutions using templates; ensuring signing and proper storage)
- Ensure corporate documentation is complete and audit-ready for CFO review
- Own core financial controls and standards (reconciliations, clean audit trails, documentation quality, basic approval processes)
- Escalate control weaknesses or governance gaps to CFO
- Provide operational finance support as needed to ensure continuity of finance processes

Process Improvement
- Document finance/admin workflows and implement practical process improvements
- Reduce manual work through light automation and better systems
- Build simple dashboards/reporting where helpful for visibility and predictability
- Present improvement recommendations to CFO for approval where appropriate

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)
