• Collaborate cross-functionally with key stakeholders, including Accounting, Refining Operations, Schedulers, and Traders.
• Develop and enhance processes and controls to ensure accurate and timely priced position reporting.
• Validate inputs to MtM calculations for accuracy and compliance with established policies; test and onboard new data sources to improve efficiency and data quality.
• Develop, maintain, and enhance analytical reports, and perform ad hoc analysis in support of senior management.
• Provide clear, concise explanations of risk exposures and key drivers impacting portfolio performance and related strategic decisions.
• Support team initiatives and ad hoc projects, including internal and external audit requests.
• Partner with Accounting and Finance (BP&A) to reconcile and explain variances between risk management and financial reporting.
• Maintain and deliver weekly and monthly analytical reporting packages.

Education and Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, or related discipline required.
• Four (4) or more years of experience in analysis of financial results and reporting and/or experience in refinery or supply operations.
