Multilingual Specialist in Order to Cash, (Credit & Collections Management) with 27 years succeeding at companies like Microsoft Corp. Apple Corp, Core HR etc. I am an expert in Credit & Collections Process Transformation & Optimisation. I really Enjoy Change Management, Leadership, People Development, Coaching & Training and especially winning the Customer back when in dispute.Achieving Excellence by Observing, Adjusting, Doing, Reviewing and Simplifying for Continuous Improvement. Identifying flawed Process, improving them and Managing Change Enables Teams to Achieve More with Less Heroism. Business is about People, Process and Tools with People in the driving seatProject Managed large scale EMEA wide, Credit and Collections centralisation programmes at Microsoft Corp in EMEA. With senior stakeholders in Corporate Treasury and EMEA Sales as well as Customer CFOs I centralised the Finished Goods, Volume Licensing and Services Collections Process from EMEA into Dublin. Results of this Project featured in International Treasury Magazine in 2000, due to spectacular results. In 2010 I successfully repeated an OTC Collections Centralisation Project from Europe at Apple Corp into their European Finance Centre. The above Projects involved Accounts Receivables in the billions of dollars per month.Great Teamwork, keen collective observation skills, problem solving, tool and methodology selection and disciplined delivery led to the success mentioned above. This same process will work in any business or business area. I attribute my Microsoft Lean Six Sigma training and use of the Pareto Principle and continuous improvement as the main ingredient to past success added to graft, persistence and Excellent Teams that I was able to pull together. Fortunate also to work with great people, who wanted success.In addition to Professional Experience and an eMBA from Hult International Business School, always happy to study, I qualified separately, as a Mind-Mapping, Memory Training and Speed Reading Instructor, licensed by Tony Buzan himself and by Open Genius for Creative Thinking and Innovation in Business. The Power of the Mind is exponential and there are keys to unlock it. I lecture occasionally in Accelerated Learning Techniques to schools in County Kerry

A/R (Accounts Receivable) Manger EmeiaApple Corp. Oct 2010 - Jul 2013IrelandManaged an Excellent Collections team, to centralise Collections EMEIA (EMEA including India) in the Apple OTC Centre of Excellence in Cork, where I worked with some truly amazing people. Apple EMEA Collections Consists of a Multi billion dollar ledger each month with in excess of 4,000 live accounts from End User accounts to the top Fortune 100 Companies. Apple Corp. was at the time the highest capitalised Tech Company in the world.- Significant Reduction in Headcount as process centralised into EMEIA Central Finance Team from the regions- Despite a $5 billion per month ledger and an already excellent performance before centralisation and despite the reduction in hedcount, STILL managed to raise the % Current Metric from 98% Current to often more than 100% Current, with more credit notes remaining outstanding than Invoices at the end of the month.-DSOs reduced to less than Credit Terms (Tight Credit Lines contributed as Product at the time was rationed as Apple couldn't produce iPhones and eventually iPads, quickly enough to match demand)- Created a Collections Reporting Tool so that all non collected cash could be catagorised and easlily explained to the business, so as to get buy in fro further upstream Process Improvement - Cerntralised Apple Store Collections (from their Buisness accounts) into the Finance Centre. This was a Challanging role as this was originally an extremley Sales Driven venture with very limited control over wide eyed Customers, many of whom originally took advantage. -

Emea Credit And Collections ManagerMicrosoft Corp. Jul 1997 - Feb 2004IrelandWorking in a Corporation performing at the very top of the Worldwide Financial Markets. Empowered to do my very best work, with an Excellent team of Subcontractors to Centralise and Redesign Processes for Microsoft EMEA Services Collections into Dublin. This was a challenging Project undertaking with relatively poor and disparate processes upstream contributing to many issues at the Collections End. Not only did I have to adjust all of our Collections Processes for volume collections (multiples of thousands) (previously only Partners and Resellers in the 100's) I also collaborated with an in house IT Manager to totally redesign our EMEA Collections Tool. This tool became our worldwide Services Collections tool (Since sold to IBM and replaced with SAP, I understand). Again this was a Project with multiple moving parts, processes and geographies and a great team delivered significant improvement in metrics 46% current to excess 75% consistently, with less than 40% of the original headcount and resources and an almost elimination of invoices more than 60 days past due.-Article Published in year 2000 in International Treasury Magazine acknowledging the exceptional performance in Microsoft EMEA's Licensing and FPP Collections Management from 1997 to 1999. -
