About Andréa Giovanni

Expert in Financial Information Systems & Transformation | M&A IT | SAP & ERP Finance

Expert in Accounting and Financial Information Systems, with a background in Financial Management (Banking-Insurance and large industrial groups), I combine a dual Finance-SI culture, reinforced by a solid legal foundation (Yale/Assas) and an MBA in Information Systems.

For over 10 years, I have been involved in complex strategic programs: Finance ERP deployments (SAP S/4HANA, Dynamics 365, Oracle), Finance function transformations, cloud migrations, repository structuring, data governance, and financial flow security.

Positioning:

- Dual role: Industry & Consulting Firm
- M&A IT Specialist (carve-out, carve-in, TSA, PMI, Finance SI integration)
- Exposure to demanding international environments (ICC arbitration, PPP, multi-country groups)
- Ability to engage at the COMEX level while remaining highly hands-on in execution

Areas of Expertise:

- Finance ERP: SAP S/4HANA FI/CO (6 certifications including 5 Finance), SAP ECC, Dynamics 365 F&O & Business Central, Oracle Fusion, Sage X3 / 1000, Cegid
- Finance Processes: General & Management Accounting, Consolidation, Treasury, Payment Methods, Electronic Invoicing, Internal Control
- Finance Governance & Data: Data Migration, Quality, Analytical Structuring
- Multi-stakeholder Program Management (Finance, IT, Legal, Integrators)

Polyglot and former expatriate, I naturally thrive in highly complex international environments.

I support my clients in securing, industrializing, and creating value from their Finance SI.
