Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Cristina
20+ years in international banking environments, including 3 years as Deputy General Manager of two UniCredit foreign branches in Paris — two entities, two regulatory perimeters, one person in charge.
Governance, HR, IT, finance, regulatory, purchasing, internal control: I managed everything in parallel, with multicultural teams and stakeholders from local to group level. Not in silos — cross-functionally, continuously, under strong regulatory constraints.
What sets me apart: a quick grasp of complex situations, energy-efficient execution, and the ability to structure what is unclear — while bringing teams along.
I work in interim management, fractional COO or CFO, or as an organizational and transformation consultant. My preferred areas: Mid-sized companies, privately held structures, scale-ups, organizations in the structuring or change phase.
Based in Paris. Available in France and Europe.
