I deliver consolidated financial reporting, accounting controls, and ERP improvements for energy businesses.
EcuadorWhat I'm looking for
I've delivered consolidated financial reporting and accounting controls at Andes Petroleum Ecuador for more than 12 years, including monthly and annual balances, deferred-tax calculations under IFRS, external audit coordination, and offshore-company journals. I was recognized for submitting consolidated monthly financial information to headquarters on time for 12 consecutive years.
Across Oil & Gas, banking, and audit roles, I've led teams of up to 30 people and supported two JD Edwards implementations, including the 9.1 upgrade. I'm now working as an independent financial consultant, bringing financial analysis, reconciliations, Power BI, and structured process management to new challenges.
