What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Finance Manager, Controller, or CFO-track opportunity within a multinational organization.

At Sutherland Global Services, I support a banking client’s FP&A function with executive financial analysis, forecasting, and performance reporting. I built Power BI dashboards that reduced reporting cycle time by 35% and developed models supporting profitability and revenue decisions.

I redesigned the Source of Funds tracking framework to address a critical audit finding, strengthening controls and regulatory compliance. My analysis of mortgage prepayments and customer attrition supported portfolio management and customer retention initiatives.

Previously, at Foresight CFO Pvt. Ltd., I delivered cash-flow forecasts and integrated strategic budgets into SAP ERP, reducing close time by four days. Across banking and financial services roles, I’ve worked on multi-entity reporting, reconciliations, financial controls, and process improvement.
