At Colgate-Palmolive (Pakistan) Limited, I manage Sales Accounting and Commercial Finance, including a PKR 1.5 billion monthly receivables portfolio supporting PKR 14 billion in monthly turnover across 550 distributors.

I onboarded 100+ customers to the Haball Digital Payment Platform, enabling automatic SAP payment posting and contributing to PKR 3.24 million in annual banking cost savings. I also led FBR-compliant Digital Invoicing implementation and automated distributor claims and PPD reporting.

As a key Finance Team Member, I supported the SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA migration, which went live in July 2026. My work spans commercial finance, working capital, receivables, financial controls, and finance process improvement in FMCG.
