Finance assistant manager with 17+ years leading FP&A, R2R, and AR operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a strategic, result-oriented finance professional with 17+ years of experience in Accounting & Financial Operations, including insurance-based profiles. I’m currently an Assistant Manager, and I bring deep ownership across FP&A, R2R, and AR operations—covering planning, month-end close, actuals reporting, and reconciliation-driven reporting.
Over my career, I’ve led operational teams and stabilized finance processes across multiple geographies. I’ve owned R2R (GAAP journal entries, balance sheet reconciliations, statutory reporting, and audit queries), managed AR (cash application & collections), and supported intercompany operations (reconciliations, clearing analysis, mismatches, and HFM submissions).
I also focus heavily on process improvement and automation. I’ve handled successful finance transitions (US GAAP/STAT and LATAM to India), created process MAP/SLA/SOPs, built UAT support practices, and automated monthly critical expense reporting using macros—while driving operational outcomes like reducing open reconciliation items and leading an unapplied cash clearance project (~$5M).
