What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned finance and accounting professional with over a decade of experience in the BPO sector, specializing in delivering top performance and value-based leadership. My journey has taken me through various roles, from Finance & Accounting Consultant to Chief Financial Officer, where I have honed my skills in financial reporting, process improvement, and strategic planning.
Throughout my career, I have successfully managed teams and projects that have led to significant operational improvements and cost savings. For instance, at Infopro Business Solutions, I directed all financial activities and initiated new management systems that improved financial reporting and procurement processes. My ability to build lasting relationships and provide robust strategies has consistently driven cross-functional teams to achieve challenging goals.
I am enthusiastic about supporting individuals and businesses to excel, leveraging my strong commercial awareness and broad knowledge of accounting principles. I am committed to fostering a collaborative environment that encourages growth and innovation, ensuring that both my team and the organizations I work with can thrive.
