I lead month-end close, controls, and reporting for international clients using Xero, QuickBooks, and Power BI.

At Efficient Ops, I oversee statutory reporting and internal controls across four offshore client delivery models, reducing flagged control weaknesses by 90%. I also manage escalations for a 10-person finance and operations team while maintaining SLA compliance for international clients.
I've owned end-to-end month-end close, financial statements, balance sheet reconciliations, and UK payroll for international clients. I build Power BI dashboards to answer directors' reporting questions and bring earlier procurement experience negotiating with 30 vendors to practical financial decision-making.
