In addition to the month end close, budgeting, forecasting and tax reporting, I’ve developed analyses for our product teams that are used to focus on new product development and opportunities to expand our market.I regularly analyzed the effects of key drivers on our business such as the effects that discounting has on our bottom line and the effects of current and future price increases on our bottom line.I have been highly involved with process and system improvements. We transitioned from Oracle to NetSuite in 2016. I was involved with the system setup, the testing process in the Sandbox, the mapping of the new General Ledger, and the development of new reports out of NetSuite. This was a large-scale system project within the organization. I was also involved with the development of reports within Oracle. I have worked extensively with developers.I was also responsible for the IT project time management system. As administrator of the system, I implemented a completely revamped and streamlined reporting process for our capitalizable costs by developing new and more useful reports for capex calculations.I was the finance subject matter expert for our product rationalization project which was set up to clean up our inventory of products.I’m always looking for areas and ways to streamline, grow and change the way things are done so that reporting can help to grow and improve the business.
