I build APAC financial reporting, forecasts, and Power BI automation that inform executive decisions.

Message

I've led APAC financial close, consolidation, budgeting, forecasting, and executive reporting at Volvo Construction Equipment, Evident Scientific, and Pearl Engineered Solutions. I turn P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, CAPEX, and operational data into clear recommendations for senior leaders.

At Volvo Construction Equipment, I owned end-to-end monthly close and consolidation across Asia business units, led a financial restatement for a new organisational structure, and delivered board packs and executive presentations. I also built Power BI dashboards and Excel-based planning models that consolidated multi-market data and reduced manual reporting effort.

Previously at Evident Scientific, I helped establish FP&A processes for a newly carved-out Bain Capital portfolio company, supporting five business units and four business centres across APAC. I reduced the month-end close cycle by 20% through reporting automation and built scalable forecasting, ROI, and project-cost templates.

I'm experienced in finance systems including SAP, Oracle EPM, Hyperion, Anaplan, Power BI, and Tableau, with a focus on strengthening controls, improving reporting accuracy, and helping teams make better investment and resource-allocation decisions.
