What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance role where I can own forecasting and modeling, lead GTM/business planning, and build dashboards that improve cost efficiency and profitability across cross-functional teams.

I’m a highly analytical finance professional with cross-sector experience in oil & energy, FMCG, and consumer electronics. I combine strategic thinking with hands-on analytical skills to deliver measurable business impact.

In my current role, I drive GTM strategy development and execution by integrating financial modeling with commercial planning. I lead monthly sales forecasting and yearly business planning, using variance analysis to surface financial risks and opportunities early—cutting inventory write-offs by 10% and improving forecast precision by 15%.

Previously at Tengizchevroil (NCO, Airswift), I spearheaded the 2024–2027 Material Management business plan and pitched/executed a $2M allocation in supply chain operations, driving a 24% increase in efficiency. I also initiated KPI and analytics dashboards to support operationally effective, cost-saving decisions, backed by rigorous forecasting and industry research.

At Nestle (Danone, Audit), I managed export sales controlling, budgeting, planning, and IFRS monthly closure (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow). I developed dashboards (including corporate profitability) and optimized internal processes using tools like MS Excel, Power BI, Python, and SQL to improve decision-making and save 8–10 hours weekly.
