Bio
Alvaro Jorge Fontes de Azevedo
I have known Alcides for over 25 years, and I had two great opportunities to work with him, at Citibank and HSBC Bank Brasil. He is one of the best accounting professionals in the Brazilian market, with deep technical knowledge in Brazil and US GAAP, and in IFRS, in addition to working with ease in the different subsystems of a financial department. In addition to being a technician par excellence, he also has comprehensive strategic thinking that enables him to lead complex financial projects. He is a professional with integrity, trustworthy, transparent in his ideas and positions, and with a lot of energy. However, what really stands out in his professional behavior is the strong empathy he normally establishes with the teams, facilitating the development of work, and the very fluid interpersonal relationship, which establishes excellent levels of communication with different stakeholders. I strongly recommend Alcides for the role of CFO, Chief Accounting Officer and leadership in different subsystems of a financial area.

When I joined Tecnisa I was interviewed by Alcides and it was one of the best conversations I had with a leader. And it was thus all the time that I worked with him. Full of ideas and with an excellent line of thought encompassing all phases of a project or problem resolution. His ideas contributed to the team working strategically thinking about the best result at the lowest cost, this is crucial in any professional's career. Friendly and integrated person. Together we have been able to improve the vision and results of the real estate credit area within the company. No doubt has the capacity to lead large projects in large companies. Definitely recommend Alcides. Ulisses Miranda
