About Aritz

Madam, Sir,
I have been working in finance for nearly twenty years, within the accounting and financial departments of various companies, from VSEs to multinationals. I have had the opportunity to work in very diverse roles, which required a high degree of versatility and rigor, as well as a great capacity for adaptation and responsiveness. My dual profile, covering both finance and accounting, therefore perfectly matches the proposed position. I have a full command of accounting and financial techniques, and my varied experience (as my CV shows) allows me to implement effective strategies.

Furthermore, I have always had an operational approach, whether in SMEs or within international groups: I want to be concretely involved each time, I am not afraid to get to the heart of accounting monitoring, which in my opinion is the best way to achieve sustainable results and be a high-performing business partner.

An experienced manager, I enjoy leading and supervising a team and interacting with multiple stakeholders, of all nationalities, in order to meet the challenges proposed, which are not lacking in the finance sector. Demanding and enthusiastic, I know how to navigate complex procedures, implement them, and demonstrate innovation in their setup, while maintaining an analytical and performance-oriented mindset that I have honed through my various roles. I would therefore be delighted to join a developing structure and take on the financial challenges that await us.
