    •  Assist with payroll support tasks as assigned (e.g., timesheet review, deductions support, reporting) while maintaining confidentiality.
    •  Track and report key metrics as needed (cash position, AP/AR status, budget vs actual summaries).
    •  Ensure compliance with internal controls and company policies; identify process improvements to reduce errors and increase efficiency.
    •  Communicate with vendors/customers professionally to resolve billing and payment questions.
    •  Performs other related duties as assigned to support business needs.
