Introduction
I help finance teams operate faster, clearer, and more reliably by improving three core pillars of performance: Operational - Structural - Strategic. With a 360° view of the finance function and strong technical expertise, I support organisations across Luxembourg and Europe in transforming their finance departments without disrupting them. My approach is simple: improve what exists, simplify what is complex, and strengthen teams for the long term. 🔹 OPERATIONAL: Fixing what slows finance down I stabilise and simplify day-to-day operations: - Data cleansing & intercompany remediation - Faster month-end closing & reporting optimisation - Audit preparation & documentation - Reliable processes that reduce errors and rework When the data becomes reliable, everything else becomes easier. 🔹 STRUCTURAL: Building clarity, continuity, and efficiency I create the foundations that make finance predictable: - Process mapping & clear responsibilities (RACI) - Internal controls & SOPs - Workflow redesign & optimisation - Better use of tools and systems A strong structure removes friction and makes teams more confident. 🔹 STRATEGIC: Enabling better decisions and long-term performance I support leaders with forward-looking insights: - KPIs & performance frameworks - Business plans & financial models - Valuation support - Investor-ready reporting and analysis Finance becomes a strategic partner not just a reporting function. ⭐ What makes my approach different • Dual expertise: I combine operational execution with strategic advisory • Adaptability: I integrate into any culture and strengthen teams from within • Non-disruptive transformation: I improve what works instead of reinventing everything • Sustainable impact: I leave behind structure, clarity, documentation, and a team capable of performing without me My mission is not to do a revolution ! But to make finance more efficient, more reliable, and more valuable to the business. If you want to strengthen your finance function, I’m always open to discuss.

I led a large-scale finance automation and standardization project for a major Real Estate Investment Fund managing a complex structure composed of operational entities, mezzanine companies, and holdings. The objective was to automate and standardize the accounting of all intercompany and external loans, including interest calculation, loan recognition, repayment, and related journal entries. ⚙️ Project Scope and Responsibilities Conducted a complete mapping and compilation of all loan cards to identify and reconcile thousands of active loans (intercompany and external) across multiple entities. Designed a unified loan accounting policy covering account structure, sub-ledger mapping, and project coding by entity and loan type. Created a centralized loan database consolidating over 10,000 loans, serving as a single source of truth for accounting, reporting, and audit purposes. Collaborated closely with software developers to design and test an automation tool handling: ▪️ Interest accrual and accounting entries (under Lux GAAP) ▪️ New loan registration and amendments (increases, repayments) ▪️ Automatic reconciliation and reporting workflows Supervised testing, UAT, and go-live phases; provided training sessions for accounting and finance teams. Ensured full alignment between Finance, IT, and Tax departments to guarantee compliance and system robustness. 🚀 Impact Reduced manual workload and calculation errors. Improved data consistency, traceability, and auditability across all entities. Established a scalable automation framework used as a foundation for future finance transformation projects within the fund.
