Executive finance & Transformation Leader
Turning complex operational and financial structures into clear, decision-ready insight
15+ years leading finance, controlling, governance and transformation across multinational operations, managing multi-entity reporting, IFRS, global shared services, ERP transformation, strategic planning and executive decision support.
I built this site as a working studio to nurture my skills and to influence decision-makers, so that numbers should make people braver to tell the truth early enough that the business still has options!
IFRS . Consolidation . Controls
FP&A . Forecasting . Management Reporting
ERP . Workflows . Governance
The Value I Create
Three Capabilities that Strengthen the Entire Finance Organisation
I do not treat reporting, operations and governance as separate disciplines. I connect them into one management system that makes performance visible, decisions faster and control stronger.
Financial Integrity
Control the Numbers
Build reliable close, consolidation and reporting routines that management, auditors and boards can trust.
IFRS & Group Reporting
Multi-entity Consolidation
Internal Controls & Compliance
Audit Readiness and Issue Closure
Decision Intelligence
Connect Finance to Operations
Translate commercial and operating drivers into forecasts, variance analysis and decision-ready executive narratives.
Driver-based FP&A
Budgeting & Rolling Forecasts
Management Reporting
Strategic Business Partnering
Process Transformation
Improve the Operating System
Redesign processes, ERP workflows and governance cadence so finance discovers issues earlier and scales with the business.
ERP & Dashboard Integration
SOP & Workflow Design
Control Automation
Finance-Team Leadership
Cross-functional Partnering
Move from Transaction to Broad-level Action
Finance Leadership Operating System
A disciplined finance function does more than close accurately. It detects changes early, links them to operating drivers, challenges the assumptions and embeds the response into ownership and cadence.
- Leadership Principles:
If a number surprises the CFO in the board pack, the process failed earlier, not in the board pack.
Built from close-cycle, multi-entity and governance experience.
01 Stabilise
Secure data integrity, cut-off discipline, reconciliations and control ownership.
02 Diagnose
Identify the operational and financial drivers behind the result.
03 Model
Translate drivers into scenarios, forecasts and capital implications.
04 Decide
Present the so-what, options, risks and recommended action.
05 Execute
Assign owners, deadlines, thresholds and cross-functional actions.
06 Embed
Institutionalise the learning through governance, systems and team cadence.
