Patty G. Email & Phone Number

With over 20 years’ experience at Large Financial Institutions, I’ve built a reputation for tackling complex challenges, building strong, high-performing global teams, and driving process design and optimization that have resulted in significant savings. I have a proven ability to recognize structural issues within the organization, functional interdependencies, and cross-silo redundancies, and lead programs to drive change. - As an Executive Director in Consumer Lending Risk at Wells Fargo, I leveraged my experience to provide risk management support for the Consumer Lending CRO Strategy, Planning and Governance function. I ensured strong controls, and designed offshoring strategy and implementation, providing functional alignment. - I spearheaded an expanded and improved approach to the Regulatory Reporting Change Management Framework, enhanced regulatory reporting accuracy and fostered stronger engagement with key stakeholders. - I led JPMorgan Chase Global Financial Consolidations teams through multiple pivotal mergers, including navigating the complexities of the Washington Mutual collapse, and orchestrating the operational capture of financial data during the Bear Stearns acquisition, ensuring seamless transitions and helping to support stability amidst industry upheavals. - I’ve transformed global Shared Services Centers in both India and Poland. Across my career I’ve successfully offshored significant business and finance functions and streamlined finance operations.- I have successfully led, managed and closed regulatory matters (all on first attempt), resulting in millions in savings. - As a leader for global teams of 150+ and managing a 9-figure budget, I have recruited, hired, trained and developed hundreds of junior employees, designed diversity and inclusion programs, and mentored staff to leadership roles. I’m committed to my team’s professional development and I am an empathetic leader. In my private time, I have served for many years as an active board member for Special Strides, a non-profit organization that offers therapeutic riding to individuals with special needs.Areas of Expertise: Risk Management, Data Oversight, Banking & Finance, Operations Frameworks & Strategy, Finance Transformation, Global Team Building, HR, Mentoring, Offshoring, People & Talent Management, Professional Development, Recruitment, Shared Services.
