About Riad
With more than 15 years of experience in international industrial environments, I support companies in improving their financial visibility, strengthening performance monitoring and making better strategic decisions. I work closely with management and operational teams to transform financial information into practical and actionable insights.
I can help you with financial analysis, budgeting and forecasting, profitability analysis, KPI monitoring, performance dashboards and project financial follow-up. My objective is not only to produce reports, but to help you understand your financial performance and identify concrete opportunities to improve it.
What differentiates me is my strong business understanding combined with solid financial expertise. Having worked in complex and project-driven environments for many years, I am used to working with operational teams, understanding business challenges and translating them into reliable financial analysis that supports decision-making.
I usually support companies on projects such as performance analysis, financial dashboards creation, budgeting and forecasting processes, profitability improvement, cost control and financial follow-up of strategic projects. I can deliver clear financial reports, structured analyses and practical recommendations that can be directly used by management.
