About Manuella

Proven leadership, particularly results-oriented with over 17 years of experience in accounting and financial consulting, management control, and auditing.

Financial and Administrative Directors consult me to address their financial and accounting challenges, combining not only operational management, process optimization, and tool implementation, but also the related human aspects.

The values that primarily characterize me are listening, agility, and trust.

Fully immersed within my clients' teams and driven by this close field proximity, I have successfully completed various assignments such as:
  • Operational management of a corporate FP&A team,
  • Information systems migration,
  • Reorganization project management,
  • Business carve-out,
  • Implementation of new standards...

I have demonstrated my ability to adapt to various companies and sectors of activity, mid-sized companies (ETI) and large listed groups. With excellent interpersonal skills, I am a valuable asset for companies wishing to improve their performance and operational efficiency.

Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your projects and discover how I can help you optimize your financial processes.
