In this position I had four core responsibilities of which the first two were the most time consuming: i) fixed assets Zug, ii) inbound freight (multiple franchises), iii) inventory integrity reporting (US and Zug), and iv) Intrastat tax reporting (only Lifescan). As a fixed asset expert I took ownership of the full asset life-cycle and the corresponding P&L impact. This means that I was involved from the start for each of the new projects up until assets were removed out of the books (i.e. disposals) since they were of no use anymore. With regard to inbound freight, I managed the freight PO's related to raw materials, finished goods and warehousing. On a monthly and quarterly basis I did the financial reporting and corresponding closing activities. Show less

For Brazil and Mexico, I additionally did the hedge accounting (monthly). Since TA owns the treasury chart of accounts, the creation, set-up or any changes to existing accounts went via our team. My main business partners were the Regional Treasury Services team in Brazil, the Global Financial Services team in Mexico and the local affiliates in the different countries. On a monthly and quarterly basis, I performed the closing reporting activities for my areas. Show less
