Description

As a Financial Controller with a background in corporate finance and project management, I have developed expertise in financial controlling, budgeting and forecasting, performance management, and strategic planning.

With experience working for companies such as Vallourec, a world leader in premium tubular solutions for the oil and gas markets, and Métaux Moteurs Pompes Industries, an international SME with high-level expertise in hydraulic solutions, I have demonstrated the ability to manage complex financial processes across diverse regions and industries. My analytical skills, strategic thinking, adaptability, and rigorousness have enabled me to excel in a range of positions, from serving as a Middle Officer for CACEIS Bank Luxembourg to leading dedicated project teams as a Client Project Manager. Moreover, my background proves to be truly international, since I have worked in the UAE, Luxembourg and France, and studied in China and Brazil

I am committed to helping organizations achieve their goals through effective financial management and decision-making, using my proficiency in financial modelling and analysis, forecasting and budgeting, cost analysis, and change management.

In addition to my expertise in financial management, I possess excellent communication and presentation skills, making me an ideal candidate to represent organizations in front of various audiences. I am a confident and articulate speaker who thrives on sharing my knowledge with others.

Whether it's presenting financial reports to executive teams, delivering training sessions to staff, or speaking at industry events, I always strive to communicate complex financial concepts in an engaging and accessible way.

Besides my professional experience, I have a strong interest in literature, cinema, painting, philosophy, and geopolitics, as well as perfect proficiency in several languages, including French, English and Spanish.
