• Serve as the primary liaison and trusted partner between Asia end-users and US FPO/GTS, bridging time zones and translating regional needs into firmwide solutions
• Identify process gaps and automation opportunities, recommending solutions that weigh risk, control, and business impact, and drive process standardization and modernization across Asia
