The finance team was responsible for profit and loss, cash flow, and balance sheet performance managed through treasury, financial planning and analysis, accounting, capital management, internal controls, payroll, and accounts receivable and payable functions. The IT team was responsible for all systems and hardware both on the manufacturing plant floor and in the office environment. I managed key relationships with banks, external auditors, the international and local union, GM and Isuzu executives.
