What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a strategic FP&A/finance leadership role where I can partner with executives, strengthen governance and audit readiness, and deliver data-driven planning, financial modeling, investor-ready reporting, and process automation.

I’m a multidisciplinary finance professional with 10+ years at the intersection of finance, strategy, operations, corporate governance, and data-driven decision support. I’ve consistently supported executives, investors, auditors, shareholders, and cross-functional stakeholders in complex, regulated, and capital-intensive environments.

As Head of FP&A / Strategic Finance Lead at Brazil Tower Company, I led budgeting, forecasting, and performance management across multiple Brazilian entities consolidated at group level. I built executive reporting and decision-ready models—then translated operational, commercial, and contractual impacts into clear recommendations on capital allocation, prioritization, growth strategy, and risk mitigation.

A major differentiator in my work is governance and audit leadership. I coordinated external audits across KPMG, EY, Deloitte, PwC, and Grant Thornton, served as an “intelligence center” for technical demands, and managed sensitive audit topics before publication. During the company’s transformation to an S.A. Categoria B under CVM regulation, I also supported an exceptional re-audit of three fiscal years (2019–2021), achieving a ~10x increase in sample volume while completing on time with internal resources.

Beyond execution, I focus on scalable data and automation. I led IFRS-driven technical initiatives including an IFRS 16 (Leases) financial model covering 1,500+ lease contracts and an IFRS 9 (CPC 48) measurement model for credit assignment contracts, while improving information flows, traceability, and reliability; I also apply AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to boost analytical productivity.
