What I'm looking for
I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Project Planning & Control Analyst with 5+ years of experience managing financial performance for large-scale international projects across LATAM. I specialize in revenue recognition, margin analysis, billing operations, and financial risk identification—supporting Project and Account Managers at global companies.
In my current role as a Project Planning & Control Analyst at GP Strategies Corporation, I manage financial oversight for 5 international client accounts across LATAM, with individual account billings of up to MXN $10M. I’ve identified ~MXN $500K in accumulated foreign exchange gains that had gone untracked for nearly a year, streamlined end-to-end billing from 20+ days to a consistent monthly close before the 15th, and deliver project cost and margin insights to help drive decision-making. I also oversee AR tracking, vendor/subcontractor POs, and accurate cost allocation across multi-country portfolios in fully remote, cross-cultural work.
Before that, at Corporativo Cinépolis, I supported AP operations and vendor payment workflows for U.S. cinema locations, participating in automated invoice processing interfaces and improving controls to reduce premature payments and reconciliation errors. Earlier, as a Project Manager at Emkode Soluciones Digitales, I led delivery of custom digital solutions end-to-end—from kickoff through deployment—strengthening my cross-functional communication, process improvement mindset, and ability to align timelines, clients, and execution.
