What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a remote Finance Manager or Financial Controller role with cross-border scope, where I can lead reporting, budgeting, cash flow, controls, and finance teams for Australian or international businesses.

At MPSN Ltd., I lead the end-to-end finance function as Finance Manager, Partner, and Director, producing board performance packs, budgets, forecasts, and cash flow projections while modernizing cloud accounting workflows.

Previously, I directed financial performance, operational strategy, procurement, and risk management for Satyabal Industries, a manufacturing enterprise employing close to 50 people. I improved margins through cost and profitability analysis, centralized controls across distributed supply chains, and protected liquidity through volatile market cycles.

My experience spans Australia and India, including high-volume accounting and AASB reporting at PICA Group. I bring hands-on capability across Xero, QuickBooks, Sage Intacct, MYOB, TechnologyOne, internal controls, compliance, and distributed finance teams.
