• Collaborate with cross‑functional stakeholders to align on deal strategy, clarify available options, and support informed, data‑driven decision‑making.
• Support Legal by translating commercial constructs into clear, executable deal structures.

• Support special projects related to pricing, governance, and Deal Desk process improvements as needed
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, eliminate redundant approvals, and improve cycle time.
