I deliver rigorous P&L control, reconciliation, and automation across global trading desks.

Message

I've delivered daily P&L production, attribution, reconciliation, and risk reporting across global investment banks and commodities trading firms for more than 20 years.

At Seaboard Overseas & Trading, I calculate and report daily trading-desk P&L, analyse attribution and risk positions, resolve discrepancies, and bridge Trading and Finance. I also lead automation and systems initiatives that strengthen controls and streamline P&L and risk reporting.

My product-control experience includes global equity-linked products at Royal Bank of Canada, prime brokerage, equity derivatives, financing arbitrage, and cash equities at Morgan Stanley, UBS, and HSBC. I've maintained General Ledger integrity, managed reconciliation breaks, supported liquidity reporting, and delivered Front Office sign-off in demanding control environments.

I'm a Chartered Accountant (SA) with practical IFRS and US GAAP experience, grounded in audit work at Deloitte & Touche. I bring a control-focused approach to complex products, cross-functional finance issues, and process improvement.
