Message

At TotalEnergies, I led accounting reporting across oil and gas joint ventures, overseeing monthly close deliverables and financial statements. I also supervised SOX controls across consolidation, stock accounting, fixed assets, and financial reporting.

As Head of Relationship with TotalEnergies Global Services Bucharest and Invoice Reception & Accounting Key User, I coordinated local Finance teams with shared services and managed a four-person invoice reception team. I implemented a digitalisation strategy for invoice reception that improved accuracy and speed.

Earlier at TotalEnergies, I supported Finance users as an SAP FI Key User and coordinated SAP financials and SOX controls. My work included SAP FI issue analysis, user access reviews, testing, and support for the SAP R/3 to SAP ECC 6.0 migration.

At ROFF, I delivered SAP FI/CO implementation, roll-out, and upgrade projects for clients including L’Oréal Portugal, BES Seguros, Renova, Bertrand, and Norvia. I worked across FI/CO configuration, data migration, testing, and go-live support, and supported SAFT-PT analysis and testing.
