Modernising Your Reporting & Month End
Financial reporting shouldn't be a lagging indicator that arrives weeks too late. I specialize in transforming the "month-end" from a manual chore into a streamlined, high-speed process. By integrating modern ERPs and automating workflows, I cut days off the closing cycle and deliver a professional Board pack that focuses on forward looking insights rather than just historical data.

Experience
Reviewed €1.8m in annual expenses, transitioning the business from a legacy credit card system to a modern platform. This move separated business vs. employee expense spend and provided the C-suite with unified data for smarter strategic decisions.
Led a comprehensive VAT and expense audit that successfully recovered €200,000 in leakage. By embedding new preventative controls, I further secured over €50,000 in future annual savings for the bottom line.
Established a 13-week rolling cashflow framework across 15+ banks and 130+ accounts. This provided the Board with forward-looking visibility and successfully protected €240,000 in margin by ensuring customer rebates were accurately claimed.
Orchestrated the implementation of SAGE ERP and a redesigned Chart of Accounts, which reduced manual journals by 30%. This transformation modernized the finance function and cut two full days off the month-end closing cycle.
Developed a sophisticated EU pricing and scenario model to quantify trade-offs between patient volume, pricing, and market access. This tool allowed the leadership team to align inventory, stock, and cash implications with real-world commercial forecasts.
