What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead accounts payable and finance operations transformation, combining P2P optimization, automation, compliance, stakeholder governance, and team development to deliver audit-ready, measurable business outcomes.

I lead end-to-end accounts payable strategy and execution at ARDEM Data Services, overseeing four concurrent projects and a 19-member cross-functional team. I manage P2P operations, vendor master data, payment runs, audit readiness, and performance governance across multiple industry verticals.

I built structured operating governance, including SOPs, quality and training plans, capacity planning, risk logs, and KPI reporting. I also consolidated portfolio data into Power BI dashboards and led OpenText VIM implementation for SAP.

Previously at Infosys BPM, I served as an AP governance authority for P2P transformation programs, scrutinizing more than $15M in transactions with 100% compliance accuracy. I developed SOX-compliant workflows, coordinated UAT and go-live readiness, and trained 40+ SAP S/4HANA end users across two geographies.

Across Capgemini, Tata Consultancy Services, and Genpact, I improved AP accuracy, cycle times, controls, and team throughput through automation, SOPs, reconciliations, and stakeholder partnership. I bring 10+ years of finance operations experience supporting UK, EMEA, US, and APAC markets.
