As Senior Vice President, Corporate Controller, I led F&A, Payroll, and Ticket Operations for a private equity-backed $500M sports and entertainment conglomerate, where I managed a team of ~24. In 2019, I assumed additional oversight for HBSE South (350+ FTEs) division. ➣ REPORTING VISIBILITY TRANSFORMATION Key to our success was the ability to lead a transformational shift to a quantified, highly qualitative roadmap that informed decision-making, enabling HBSE to be more strategic in investments and ROI expectations. As a result, the company has expanded its focus on teams, venture investments, real estate development, and new properties (assets), including the purchase/re-brand of a historic eGaming brand. ➣ DEVELOPMENT OF A FINANCIAL MODEL THAT CHANGED THE GAME In recent years, I led the build of a pioneering and highly complex League Economics modelling and reporting capability that has enabled a more accurate understanding of macro- and micro-level impacts, and forecasting. ➣ CONTROLLED INVESTMENT STRATEGYDuring this time, I contributed to controlled growth and the successful integration of bolt-on investments as HBSE continues to evolve as a sports conglomerate, and aggregately saved over $5M over 4 years while capturing an additional $300K+ in internal resource savings.
