Finance professional specializing in Accounts Receivable and Order-to-Cash process optimization through data analytics.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a finance professional with 5+ years of progressive experience in Accounts Receivable (AR), Order-to-Cash (O2C), cash application, and financial operations within global shared services environments. I’ve led cross-functional work across multiple time zones, delivered exceptional results in remote-first settings, and used data to reduce process turnaround time by up to 50% and improve operational efficiency by 35% while maintaining SOX and GAAP compliance.
In my AR work, I manage end-to-end refund and dispute operations, executing approval validation, reconciliation, and compliance verification with a focus on accuracy, SLA performance, and scalable process documentation. Alongside transaction processing and bank/GL reconciliation, I build KPI dashboards in Tableau/Power BI and communicate weekly insights to leadership—supporting continuous improvement through SOPs, knowledge transfer, and disciplined internal controls.
