- Partner with FP&A, programs, and business development on accruals, costing, and compliance
- Identify control gaps, recommend improvements, and help modernize accounting practices
- Serve as a trusted resource for staff, vendors, and partners on financial policies and systems
What you bring

- Comfort with accounting systems (Deltek Costpoint, Concur a plus) and strong Excel skills
- Clear communicator with sharp judgment, strong organization, and a service mindset
Why this role
- You’ll have visibility, autonomy, and the opportunity to improve how things work—while supporting programs that make a real difference worldwide.

- You work with smart, collaborative colleagues who value clarity and follow-through
- Your ideas to strengthen controls and improve processes are welcomed and acted on
