Message

At BASF, I led the implementation of a new global invoice output template across EMEA, handling end-to-end system testing, error resolution and design with technical and operational teams.

I delivered e-invoice adaptations for multiple EMEA sales organisations and served as an OTC Key User in the Next Generation Business Architecture programme, contributing to improvements in invoicing architecture and the end-to-end OTC process.

Earlier at BASF, I monitored invoicing operations for Spain, Portugal and Italy, resolved SAP exceptions, and managed vendor invoices in line with group procedures.

At Clariant GBS Centre, I delivered accounts payable services for Europe and Latin America, spearheaded the digitalisation of taxation codes for Argentina, and participated in the SAP migration from Cobalt to HANA.
