What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my analytical skills and contribute to impactful financial decisions while fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.

My experience includes working as a Credit Analyst at Mercandú, where I analyze credit requests to support financial decision-making, proposing adjustments to amounts, conditions, and payment dates to optimize credit management.

In addition to my analytical skills, I have a proven track record in managing collection strategies that have significantly improved account recovery rates.
