Department services
Associate Department Touchpoints
Finance associates will be assigned to different MEA departments to serve as liaisons should there be a need for communication (ex. Associate A will be put in charge of HR). They will serve as additional contact persons for their respective departments, in order to ensure that information and protocols are relayed to the Office of Finance.
Associate Deployments
Depending on project needs 1 or 2 FIN Deputies will be deployed to projects to serve as Finance liaisons. The deputies serve as the main link between FIN and the rest of AB.
