I am a dedicated and professional Finance Operations Manager with over 15 years of experience managing finance operations and shared services in compliance-centric environments. While I have predominately worked in professional services, every position I have held centred around managing global finance operations, policy development and implementation, delivering continuous improvement initiatives, leading local and offshore teams, and partnering with executive stakeholders. I have held leadership roles where I have ‘lifted and shifted’ teams, established business assurance frameworks, and advanced technology and automation. I have a pragmatic, patient, and professional manner, and my excellent communication skills allow me to engage with executive stakeholders to drive commercial outcomes and solve operational problems across multinational organisations. I am solutions-focused and have the drive, maturity, and versatility to bring together people, processes, and technology to deliver innovative operational outcomes.CORE COMPETENCIES ➡️ Managing Global Finance Operations➡️ Leading Shared Services Functions➡️ Business Assurance and Auditing➡️ Policy Development and Implementation➡️ Expertise in Trust Accounting & Controlled Monies➡️ Project Management and Implementation➡️ Continuous Process Improvement➡️ Advancing technology and automation➡️ Strong planning and organisation skills ➡️ Business partnering with Senior Stakeholders➡️ Cross-functional collaboration ➡️ Coaching and mentoring teams and individuals➡️ Authentic and respectful communicator➡️ Flexible and collaborative leaderTECHNOLOGY SKILLS ✅ 3E Practice Management System✅ Lexis Affinity Legal Software Solution✅ iManage Document Management System✅ Chrome River Expense Management System✅ Fraedom Expense Management Application✅ ServiceDesk Plus Management Software✅ MS SharePoint, Word, Excel, and PowerPointI’m always open to expanding my network and connecting with other top professionals.
