Fausto Navarro Valencia
@faustonavarrovalenci
I lead risk-based audit, internal controls, and fraud investigations across regulated multinational businesses.
What I'm looking for
At Ferrovalle, I lead the risk-based annual audit plan across railway operations, finance, procurement, technology, and compliance, reporting directly to the Audit Committee and CEO. I oversee the ethics hotline, fraud investigations, and remediation follow-up while expanding audit coverage to SAP S/4HANA, operational safety, and information protection.
Across 20 years in rail, manufacturing, chemicals, media, insurance, and professional services, I’ve modernized audit methodologies, strengthened COSO/ERM governance, and translated financial, operational, technology, and safety risks into accountable action plans. My work has reduced financial losses by 15%, reduced inventory discrepancies by 20%, and included cross-border Deloitte engagements with teams in the United Kingdom, Brazil, Denmark, and the United States.
