In my position as a Billing Manager in Accounting, I led a team of Project Accountants and Specialists to manage the invoicing of consultant fees and expenses on projects. We supported up to 150 active Healthcare, Consumer Products, and Financial Services projects generating $65 - $94 million in annual revenue. In this capacity, I assisted Project Managers in monitoring project budgets, reviewed contracts for firm best practices, and ensured that the project accounting activities remained within project scope. Through careful planning and well-defined processes, the Project Accounting team was highly regarded in our ability to adapt quickly to changing business needs and project requirements. We were frequently consulted on project planning for firm-wide initiatives. As Project Coordinator, I helped define processes, plan, execute and provide training for system upgrades in our legacy system and for our recent PeopleSoft ERP implementation.Professional Experience: Project Accountant/Coordinator Mergers/Acquisitions/Divestments Business Process Analysis Continuous Improvement Project Life-Cycle PeopleSoft ERP Implementation General Accounting – 30 years Billing  Time & Expense Accounts Receivable  Accounts Payable  Collections Leading Co-Located & Virtual teams Change Management – 18 years Agile and Waterfall Project-CyclesTechnical Experience: Microsoft Office Suite Advanced Excel, Word, Access, Project, and Adobe Pro VBA Macros PeopleSoft ERP Financial Level3, GoTo Meeting, Skype Google Suite SharePoint Total Quality Management Tools Crystal Reports
