Greece

Message

At Costa Navarino – TEMESGroup, I lead group controlling, FP&A and finance transformation across annual operations and a capital and development portfolio. I report to the CFO and lead a team of six, coordinating finance professionals across controlling and accounting.

I improved forecast accuracy by 15% with a construction-specific, driver-based financial planning model. I also introduced real-time cash-flow monitoring for construction expenditure and led finance centralisation, common accounting policies and PO/PR process redesign.

I co-led the SAP S/4HANA migration across 10 entities and project-managed the SAP Analytics Cloud implementation, redesigning the group financial reporting suite. I also integrated SAP, Opera PMS and Salesforce into TARGIT BI for automated financial and operational dashboards.

Earlier, I evaluated investment initiatives exceeding €70M at Costa Navarino and controlled EU-funded software programmes exceeding €20M at EXUS Ltd. My experience also includes assurance and tax work at PwC, including IFRS and local GAAP audits, tax audits and acquisition tax due diligence.
