• Manage commercial activities including internal recharges and personnel hire-out processes
• Ensure all commercial processes and documentation comply with company policies and governance requirements
• Support internal and external audits through accurate record-keeping and documentation
• Identify financial risks and opportunities while driving continuous process improvements
