Handle international travel arrangements, itineraries, paperwork, and logistics. 2. Data Analysis & Business Intelligence Gather data across departments to create clear, actionable executive reports, dashboards, and presentations. Continuously audit workflows and metrics to identify gaps, inefficiencies, and areas for process improvement.

Financial & Administrative Support Assist with financial tracking, expense management, budget auditing, and financial reporting.
