What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role improving AR/cash processes where I can lead cross-functional teams, drive ERP/cash system implementations, optimize KPIs, and implement process automation in a collaborative, improvement-focused environment.

I am a results-driven senior manager with 10+ years of experience optimizing accounts receivable, cash applications, reconciliations and treasury shared services. I lead and grow teams, standardize policies across Canada and the US, and have repeatedly delivered large clean-up projects and ERP implementations that improved KPIs and reduced unapplied balances.

I combine deep technical knowledge of cash application systems (GP, TRUX, CieTrade) with strong cross-functional collaboration—working with IT, finance and leadership to implement mergers & acquisitions processes, automate workflows and explore AI to boost efficiency. I am committed to continuous improvement and clear communication to ensure seamless operational change.
