Christine Ritschard

I’m a Business Operations Specialist with more than 20 years of experience supporting growing businesses through accurate financial administration, payroll, accounts payable and receivable, purchasing, vendor management, and office operations. I’m known for exceptional attention to detail and for identifying costly errors before they become bigger problems.

In my most recent role, I managed weekly payroll for 20–40 employees across multiple payroll platforms, processed approximately 120–150 invoices monthly with about 40 active vendor accounts, and created/maintained Excel job-costing spreadsheets to support profitability analysis. I also recovered vendor overcharges through careful invoice review and follow-up while preventing additional unnecessary expenses.

I’ve been trusted as the “second set of eyes” for payroll, HR policies, invoices, business correspondence, and operational documentation—consistently checking accuracy before distribution. As MJ Nester grew from an eight-person startup to an established operation, I assumed responsibility for virtually every aspect of office operations to keep work flowing smoothly.

Earlier, I managed daily operations for an international marine parts business, handling online orders, inventory, payment processing, customer service, and worldwide shipping. I also built strong customer relationships through knowledgeable, responsive support, and started my career in high-accuracy data entry and parts coordination.
