The Chief Accounting Office (CAO) manages Intel's global accounting, compliance, and reporting. Within CAO's Revenue and Rebates organization, the Rebates Global Process Owner Analyst is accountable for standardizing and governing product level rebate accrual and inventory/payment methodologies through two key capabilities: 1. Global Rebate Accounting Standard Practices (GRASP) Product Level Accrual Algorithm operating model - including ownership of accrual logic integrity, exception/override governance, rollout enablement, training, and stabilization support. 2. Throughput Time First In-First Out (TPT FIFO) template and process enablement - including training, support of the TPT FIFO method (buffer logic, TPT assumption derivation), and enabling consistent execution across account teams. This role partners closely across CAO, IT, SMG regional reps, rebate analysts (RAs), and audit/compliance stakeholders to ensure scalable, well controlled execution and audit readiness as processes and tooling evolve. ________________________________________ Key Responsibilities A) Own accrual algorithm logic integrity and operating model (GRASP) • Serve as the accountable/responsible owner for accrual logic and algorithm integrity and applicability. • Define/maintain exception rules and override governance, including required rationale, support, and methodology for overrides. • Partner with RAs/COE to interpret outputs, analyze variances, and drive model enhancements based on structured feedback. • Support rollout and stabilization activities, including UAT/test environment simulations and cutover readiness discussions. B) Drive training, enablement, and adoption • Lead/coordinate training execution for GRASP algorithm enablement, including sharing recorded walkthroughs, live sessions, and office hours. • Establish capability expectations (L1/L2/L3) for stakeholder groups (CAO management, SMG management, RAs, COE, regional reps) to support scaled adoption. • Provide advisor/sounding board support to account teams during onboarding/stabilization while strengthening standardized decision making. C) Own/enable TPT FIFO template and process execution • Deliver training and ongoing support for TPT FIFO template/process, including FIFO/TPT concepts, buffer handling, and how TPT assumptions are derived. • Maintain/iterate enablement artifacts (templates, guidance) that leverage Excel formulas, Power Query, and macros to standardize execution. • Guide handling of edge cases (e.g., inventory sufficiency flags, buffer usage, out of order consumption constraints) consistent with policy and process design. D) Controls, SOX, and audit readiness • Partner with COE/controls stakeholders to ensure process changes remain SOX relevant, documented, and auditable, including alignment with audit expectations when introducing new technologies or changing operating models. • Support high risk close/control execution needs as required (e.g. coverage of SOX control and SOX610 global sample work). E) Cross functional stakeholder leadership • Translate technical accounting/process concepts into clear guidance and decision options for CAO and business partners, supporting go/no go decisions and scaled rollout governance. • Vistex/V4 readiness/adoption across the landscape, including but not limited to: Reporting and Analytics Lead, Finance Systems and UAT Rep, and Payment Adjustment Reviewer and Approver. ________________________________________ Core Competencies: • Operates effectively in ambiguity; can design and stabilize operating models while adoption is in flight. • Influences without authority; builds alignment across CAO, SMG, and regional stakeholders. • High accountability mindset; emphasizes transparency, standardized decisioning, and auditable governance.
