Franco Dottore
@francodottore
Finance and operations leader combining CAPEX finance, KPI analytics, and FinTech-ready strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a finance and operations professional with 10+ years of experience, including 6+ years at Mondelēz International. I combine hands-on financial modelling, KPI management, and rigorous analysis to connect operational excellence with business strategy—especially through CAPEX & forecasting.
In my current role as Manufacturing Cell Lead, I lead a 6-person operations team with full P&L accountability at cell level, owning cost, efficiency, and output performance. I delivered a 10% reduction in operational costs using structured KPI reviews, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement, while building Power BI dashboards for real-time, data-driven decision-making.
Previously, I owned a $12M annual CAPEX portfolio across multiple markets, driving forecasting, variance analysis, KPI reporting, and capital allocation decisions. I also led business development strategy in a category role, supported investment impact dashboards, and bring a compliance mindset from HSE work and earlier renewable energy consultancy experience—targeting Finance Operations or BizOps roles in FinTech and tech companies.
