My name is Fred Dixon and I bring order to chaos.I am a Senior Finance and Accounting Executive with a detail-orientation and extensive experience in a variety of industries across multiple disciplines. As a Chief Financial Officer, I have a no nonsense business approach – “do the math first”. I dedicate myself to my company, and I work well within a senior management team. I am bottom line oriented in financial reporting and analysis. I have a strong focus on communication, cash management, and control of expenses. My core competencies lend strength to:• ownership relations• financial management reporting• information systems development• process improvement• budgeting and forecasting• profitability analysis• tax compliance• work scheduling• office administration• team building• client collections and vendor payment control• intranet development• human resources• purchasingI’ve had a diverse set of experiences. My particular skill-set allows me to take a broad and cross-functional look at complex problems and deliver solutions to those problems through process improvement and technology innovation. This brings order to chaos.★ At Visual Aids Electronics, I improved management reporting and budgeting that increased timeliness, accuracy and ease of use. From these improvements, I advised the owner and senior management during a period of tripling of revenue that eventually resulted in the sale of the company.★ At Quantex, I saw a startup high tech company in need of financial discipline. I instituted systematic client collections and vendor payments supplemented with receivable factoring and vendor negotiation to stabilize the company cashflow to see it through to its next transition.My future plans are to continue providing deep insight into the interrelationships of business processes and systems.
