The Challenge
A large, mature enterprise with decades of accumulated complexity faced simultaneous demands: multiple ERP instances, fragmented treasury systems managing billions in global cash flows and FX exposures, manual finance processes across AP, AR, and accounting, and data platforms unable to keep pace with business demands. The transformation required rebuilding treasury, automating finance and HR, establishing global bank communication infrastructure, and developing a modern analytics capability — all in parallel over a multi-year programme.
Our Approach
SAP Treasury & Risk Management
Led the design, configuration, and implementation of SAP TRM across global operations — covering FX hedging, derivatives management, debt and investment tracking, and multi-currency exposure management. Designed integration controls for the full trade lifecycle (execution, settlement, revaluation, and accounting), established an interface monitoring framework, and defined commodity hedge strategy frameworks aligned with IFRS and ASC 815.
In-House Banking & Cash Management
Designed and implemented in-house banking systems to centralize intercompany cash flows and optimize netting processes using SAP IHC. Built out cash positioning, forecasting, and planning capabilities — giving the treasury team real-time global cash visibility for the first time.
Global Bank Communication Management (SWIFT)
Served as global owner of bank communications management — enabling connectivity with over 11,000 banking institutions via SWIFT and ISO 20022 standards. Implemented the global SWIFT infrastructure, configured bank statement processing, managed payment format compliance, and authored training curriculum and change management programs for treasury and finance teams.
Finance Transformation — AP, AR & Accounting
Led design, deployment, and support of finance processes including AP/AR/GL, electronic bank statement processing, lockbox, direct debits, credit card payments, and e-commerce integrations. Redesigned accounting reconciliations to meet SOX, GAAP, and IFRS requirements, working directly with IT audit teams on business process controls.
Data Platforms & Analytics
Built and maintained enterprise ETL pipelines and data integration solutions supporting Treasury, Finance, and HR functions. Delivered data warehousing architecture, data quality assurance, and KPI reporting frameworks that gave leadership actionable visibility into financial performance.
Vendor Management & Strategic Advisory
Managed global demand and project portfolio processes in collaboration with internal executives. Participated in RFP and vendor selection, monitored strategic initiative budgets, and managed technology integrations through mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures — ensuring continuity across structural changes.
