Bio
Chris Deon
Renata is type of person you want on your team when you have to get the job done right! I had the pleasure of working with her for almost two years. She held the position of Sr. Accountant in the LATAM region of our global company, AgroFresh. During this time she maintained the books and records along with the financial and tax authority reporting. She was able to accomplish all this and more while getting a new LATAM Director of Accounting up to speed when the former gave notice. Above all, I was impressed with her dedication to work and ability to problem solve with a positive attitude. While my Portuguese was limited, we were able to communicate effectively through email and Renata kept me up to date on a weekly basis as to the accounting operations in her office. I would certainly recommend her for any future positions and if the opportunity presented itself, work with her again.

I’ve had chance to work with Renata few years ago in the Dow’s Shared Services in São Paulo. She did a great job as part of the OTC team (a Order to Cash), in the Invoicing and Cash Applications processes. She was always very a committed, fast learning, curious and hard worker professional. It was a pleasure to work with her. Regards
