What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role where I can lead FP&A and reporting automation, work cross-functionally, drive profitability, and grow into broader finance leadership.

I am a Finance Business Partner with experience managing financial planning and performance for large regional portfolios, delivering forecasting, variance analysis, CapEx oversight and automated reporting solutions using SAP, Oracle and Power BI. I have led cross-functional initiatives like cost optimization and product-performance dashboards that translated analyses into actionable insights for senior EMEA leadership.

I bring experience across commercial, corporate and treasury finance from multinational firms, a strong track record in automation and audit-ready reporting, and hands-on leadership mentoring junior staff. I am analytical, collaborative and focused on improving profitability and efficiency through scalable financial processes.
