Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Expert in financial steering and business performance, I combine over 8 years of experience in FP&A, management control, and audit with expertise in economic intelligence acquired at the School of Economic Warfare.

Today, as a Corporate Finance and Strategy Consultant, I manage the financial consolidation of international subsidiaries, group budget construction, and support operational management in their decision-making.

What I bring:

Financial Modeling & FP&A Steering: budgets, forecasts, business plans, P&L/EBITDA/cash flow analysis, performance KPIs

M&A Strategy & Due Diligence: participation in investment studies, business cases, external growth, and target valuation

Audit & Risk Assessment: financial risk analysis, financial statement reliability, internal control, and compliance

Economic Intelligence: strategic watch, anticipation of competitive and regulatory risks, data-driven decision support

Trained in audit, management control, and strategy (Executive MBA Economic Intelligence) and certified FP&A and FMVA, I help financial management and executives secure their decisions through rigorous analysis of figures and risks, at the intersection of finance and strategy.
