- Localized Problem Solving:
- Act as the first point of contact for resolving day-to-day operational issues related to cash collection, deposits, and escalations in local markets, focusing on speed and accuracy.

- Reporting & Data Support:
- Own the creation of routine operational reports (daily/weekly/monthly) that track the health of cash payments, arrear status, and KPIs for cash in the INSA region.
- Support the L3/L4 managers by pulling, cleaning, and preparing data for deeper ad-hoc analysis on collection trends and process efficiency.
- Process Compliance & Improvement:
- Map out and document existing local processes accurately, suggesting small, incremental improvements to enhance efficiency and reduce manual effort.
- Stakeholder Collaboration:
- Collaborate closely with local city operations teams, finance teams, and external cash collection vendors/partners in INSA to ensure smooth, end-to-end operational flow.
