What I'm looking for

I seek senior finance roles where I can lead financial reporting, strengthen controls, optimize fixed-asset and ERP processes, mentor teams, and contribute to strategic cost and risk management in a collaborative, growth-focused organization.

I am a senior finance professional with deep expertise in financial reporting, IFRS compliance, and internal controls gained across telecommunications, consulting, and construction sectors.

I have led budgeting, fixed asset management, month-end close, and intercompany accounting while implementing process improvements and ERP transitions such as Microsoft Dynamics and Navision.

My work includes mentoring teams, streamlining payroll and billing processes, establishing finance help desks, and supporting shared service and control setups across regions.

I deliver accurate financial statements, actionable variance analyses, and risk-mitigation recommendations to support strategic decisions and strengthen financial operations.
