What I'm looking for
With over 20 years of experience in Treasury, I have honed my skills in leadership, communication, and project management while working with multinational corporations such as Meta, Unilever, and PepsiCo. My extensive background includes managing treasury operations across Europe, North America, and Latin America, where I have successfully led teams and implemented innovative financial strategies.
Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, including renegotiating FX spreads that saved USD 1.5 million annually and establishing new banking relationships across multiple countries. My focus on personal and professional development drives me to seek continuous challenges in a multicultural environment, where I can leverage my expertise in cash management, liquidity, and corporate finance.
