Senior accounting professional streamlining close, payroll, and multi-country compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a certified accounting professional with 12+ years of progressive experience in bookkeeping, payroll, tax compliance, and financial management for multinational companies. I’m known for maintaining clean books, streamlining reporting, and ensuring timely closings and audits, while managing complex financial systems with strong accuracy and compliance.
In recent roles, I’ve overseen full-cycle accounting (AR/AP, reconciliations, journal entries, and financial statements), built and managed 1099/C2C workflows, and improved payroll processing accuracy. I’ve also led teams—delegating payroll, invoicing, and compliance work, running internal audits, and improving invoice and reporting cycles through QuickBooks-driven process optimizations, while preparing budgets, forecasts, MIS reports, and profit & loss analysis.
