What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead AP process improvements, drive compliance and KPIs, mentor teams, and contribute to automation and operational excellence.

I am a results-driven Accounts Payable and Source-to-Pay professional with over six years of hands-on experience in invoice processing, process improvements, and vendor management. I have led AP operations for multiple regions including Poland, SEE, Iberia, Germany, Switzerland, and the Nordics, and have been entrusted as an Iberia Country Expert.

I spearhead process optimization initiatives that reduced invoice processing delays and improved compliance, and I regularly monitor KPIs and prepare progress reports to ensure alignment with global service standards. I have acted as a process expert on cross-regional projects (Plan B for Singapore, Malaysia, and Japan), served on expert committees, and functioned as a quality check analyst for German invoices.

I am experienced in training and coaching junior associates, implementing best practices, and supporting automation and ERP systems (SAP). I hold certifications including ACE and Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt, and have received multiple performance awards and consistent commendations for outstanding service.
