Can you provide an example of when you provided strategic recommendations to senior management?

Yes, I can provide an example of when I provided strategic recommendations to senior management. In my previous role as a Control Analyst at XYZ Company, I was tasked with conducting regular control assessments and analyzing the results. During one assessment, I identified a control weakness in our accounts payable process that could potentially lead to duplicate payments. I immediately brought this to the attention of senior management and recommended implementing a new control measure to prevent such errors. I presented a detailed report outlining the potential risks and the proposed solution, highlighting the benefits of implementing the new control measure. Senior management appreciated my proactive approach and approved the recommendation. As a result, we were able to significantly reduce the risk of duplicate payments and improve the efficiency of the accounts payable process.
