What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead finance and accounting operations where I can improve P2P, R2R, O2C, FP&A, reporting, working-capital analysis, controls, and process performance while managing stakeholders and teams.

I'm currently leading Procure-to-Pay operations at Tata Consultancy Services, managing SLA and TAT delivery, payment-trend analysis, working-capital insights, management reporting, and KPI improvement.

I've managed end-to-end accounting for manufacturing organizations at JDN Nutrition, including month-end close, reconciliations, cash flow reporting, GST compliance, budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and audit coordination.

My finance experience also includes general accounting and reporting at Mountain Trail Foods (ChaiPoint), business finance at EuroKids International, and accounts and finance roles at Mandya Organic Foods and PNP Polytex.

I bring 10 years of experience across P2P, R2R, O2C, FP&A, AP, AR, GL, financial reporting, working-capital analysis, stakeholder management, knowledge transition, SOP development, and team leadership.
