Role Summary

This is not a daily operations role. You are not in every posting and every invoice — the partner runs the
day-to-day. You operate in review and assurance mode, on a defined risk-based cycle, and you go deep
where the risk and the value are.

For every finding, you run the same loop:

•  Review. Examine the monthly numbers, the underlying bookings and the methods behind them —
  substantively, not just for plausibility. Work from a risk-based review plan that you set and update:
  high-risk accounts, new properties, unusual lease structures, new markets, material judgements.
•  Diagnose. Establish what is actually wrong and why. Distinguish a one-off keying error from a
  systematic misapplication of a method from a genuine gap in guidance — the remedy is different in
  each case.
• Correct. Get it fixed in the current period: instruct and agree the correcting entries with the partner,
  and in exceptional cases post or adjust yourself. Nothing material carries forward unresolved.
• Standardise. Where the root cause is systematic, define the correct treatment as a binding group
  standard — the accounting position, the booking logic, the required evidence, the responsible party
  and the control that catches it next time.
• Document. Write it into the group accounting manual and the relevant working instruction, in a form
  the partner’s team can apply without asking you.
• Enable. Walk the partner’s team through it, explain the business context behind the rule, and make
  sure it is understood rather than merely received.
• Re-test. Verify in the next cycles that the standard is being applied. Track it in your findings log until
  it is demonstrably closed.

Your posture towards the partner is cooperative, not adversarial. You are their interface to Numa and their access to business context — and at the same time the person who steers their output from Numa’s perspective and holds the technical line. You carry a functional mandate to set accounting requirements, with escalation to the CFO where they are not met
