Lead the preparation of financial reports from a lounge chair in Fiji. As director of financial reporting for a global company, your job is no small task. You merge the financial reports from all the Marriott hotels into one overall report, which you present to top executives. You also develop reports required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to prove you’re not fudging any numbers. From your findings in your reporting, you make recommendations to the Chief Financial Officer that can help the company in the future. It’s hard work, but you have an open invitation to penthouse suites all over the place.
