Project description: In the current dynamic environment, Finance needs to excel and overdeliver in the analysis and understanding of the footprint and performance of our field teams. To this end, we need to deep dive into the Iberia Hub’s Selling and EMS (Enterprise Meeting Services) processes and their direct impact on the Finance organization. The intern will build a strategic understanding of how information flows across areas (from meeting requests and opportunities to closures and expense analysis) to identify where data quality suffers and where improvement levers lie. To that end, the intern will (re)design key processes, engage directly with the Selling and EMS teams, and propose a concrete roadmap of solutions with a strong focus on automation and accountability. As complementary workstreams, the intern will also support collaboration with our Business Units, with a noted focus on the BU’s AI adoption Finance initiatives and their actionability.

Project Goal and Objectives: To deliver a clear diagnosis of the Selling and EMS as-is situation, identify root causes of cross-functional pain points, and propose a prioritized roadmap of automation and improvement solutions. Secondarily, to get exposed to and support our Business Units in their Finance and Automation journeys.
