Business Admin professional driving results in logistics, accounting & real estate with adaptability, precision and a proactive mindset.
ColombiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Business Manager and Business Administration professional with experience in accounting, logistics, production/quality operations, and real estate services. I’m recognized for “strong attention to detail,” a “commitment to excellence,” and an ability to adapt quickly to new environments while staying collaborative and proactive.
In my latest roles, I’ve managed end-to-end returns and ensured policy compliance with full documentation traceability. I upload and validate invoices for accurate accounting support, calculate and reconcile commissions by verifying inputs, and use SEVENET to manage returns, invoicing, and commission tracking—coordinating with warehouse, accounting, and commercial teams to deliver timely and reliable monthly closes.
I also strengthen internal control through verified reconciliations and operational accuracy. I’ve verified and reconciled cash register closings, controlled and recorded daily cash movement for traceability, and performed accounting document entry/classification/validation in Siigo to streamline administrative and financial management.
Beyond accounting, I drive operational performance through quality and scheduling work—reviewing and optimizing operational reports, managing property inventory control during check-in/check-out, issuing and controlling invoices, and using SAP for planning and execution. I’ve even implemented a “Power BI reporting platform” and analyzed financial and operational KPIs to support management reporting, bringing continuous-learning energy to every improvement opportunity.
