What I'm looking for

I seek a managerial finance role where I can lead budgeting, forecasting and process improvements in a collaborative, growth-oriented company with international operations and strong ERP systems, while mentoring teams and influencing strategic decisions.

I am a results-driven finance manager with extensive experience in financial analysis, budgeting, forecasting and month-end/year-end closings. I strengthened financial management processes to near-zero reporting errors, led capital expenditure planning, audits, and prepared financials for international branches.

I hold an MBA in Finance (in progress) and certifications in ERP/SAP and Xero, and I apply a meticulous, methodical approach to cost control, cashflow optimization and regulatory compliance. I drive process improvements, deliver clear management reporting, and mentor teams to improve financial performance.
