What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can improve cash flow, strengthen credit controls, lead ERP implementations, and drive measurable reductions in DSO and bad debt while mentoring finance teams.

I am a results-driven finance and credit control professional with over 8 years' experience across hospitality, tourism, and development sectors. I specialize in credit management, revenue accounting, auditing, and financial reporting with strong IFRS knowledge.

I have implemented cash flow management systems and credit risk models that reduced the cash conversion cycle by 20%, cut bad debt by 18%, and improved DSO from 45 to 28 days. I led ERP integrations that shortened processing time by 35% and achieved 100% IFRS 15 compliance during audits.

I excel at process improvement, internal controls, dispute resolution, and team leadership—training finance teams and boosting efficiency by 25%. My hands-on experience includes working with Fidelio, Navision, SUN, Micros, QuickBooks, and Sage.

I deliver measurable financial improvements—raising collection efficiency by 30%, resolving 98% of billing disputes within seven days, and contributing to revenue growth—while maintaining strong customer relations and operational discipline.
