Edward Gutierrez
@edwardgutierrez
Senior finance professional driving data-led forecasting and automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic, results-driven finance professional with over 10 years of experience supporting executive decision-making through financial planning, forecasting, and data-driven reporting. I specialize in transforming complex data into actionable insights and building forecasting models that improve accuracy and guide business strategy.
At Warner Bros., I led automation initiatives that reduced month-end close time by 20% and prepared monthly reporting across multiple business units, delivering clear presentations and recommendations to senior leadership. Previously, as a senior auditor I conducted financial audits that identified and recovered $87 million in discrepancies and developed data-driven models to optimize marketing spend.
I bring advanced Excel, SAP, Tableau, Power BI, and SQL skills, combined with a disciplined approach shaped by four years of service in the United States Marine Corps. I thrive in high-visibility environments where cross-functional collaboration, process optimization, and precise financial analysis drive measurable business impact.
