EnglishSenior Finance & Strategic Planning Manager (VP) | Driving Business Performance through Data & Automation I am a Senior Finance Business Partner with 9 years of experience helping senior leaders not just understand their numbers but use them to shape strategy. My work sits at the intersection of Strategic FP&A, Portfolio Management, and Process Optimization - bridging the gap between complex operational data and executive decision-making. At Citi, I act as a strategic challenger and advisor to Directors and MDs across a portfolio of 11 global functions (1,500+ FTE). I don’t just report on the past; I build forecasting frameworks that predict future risks and opportunities. Whether navigating regulatory surges or optimizing cost structures, I focus on replacing "gut feeling" with data-driven scenarios. What I bring to the table: • Strategic Governance: I translate operational metrics into clear financial insights, ensuring that every budget dollar aligns with long-term business goals. • Efficiency & Automation: I believe finance leaders should analyze data, not just compile it. By leveraging Power BI and automated workflows, I have reduced manual reporting effort by ~60%, freeing up time for high-impact analysis. • Resilience & Leadership: I thrive in high-pressure environments. I have successfully led teams through critical volume surges (+100%), re-engineering processes to maintain stability and precision when it mattered most. My core expertise includes: • Strategic FP&A, Budgeting & Portfolio Planning • Business Process Optimization & Automation (Power BI) • Driver-Based Forecasting & Scenario Modelling • Executive Decision Support & Risk Management • Cost Control & Resource Allocation Relocation: I am relocating to Austria (Vienna / Styria) in Q2 2026 and am open to Senior Finance, Controlling, and Strategy roles.
