Alan J. Medina Jr.

Pim was responsible for developing forecasts, profitability models, creating systems and processes, short-term flow analysis and forecasting as we developed the group. He has excellent project management, time and problem-solving skills. He is very articulate in explaining financial details and concepts with an ability to simplify explanations of financial information to company leadership. Pim acted as the Business Controller managing the cost structure and was heavily involved in VAT management. Pim took on additional responsibilities in the group in the areas of Supply Chain, Production and some Commercial responsibilities. He also built structure into those additional areas so that they would function efficiently with the rest of the operation.

We come across a lot of people, and only few of them leave marks. One of them is definitely Pim. I was amazed by his energy, his ability to handle calmly and throughoutly any issue we faced within 4 years working together. His guidance and advises were always invaluable. I could have only dreamt of such mentor and colleague. Pim will be a valuable asset to any company!
