Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Treasurer by training and by heart, I have been supporting companies and investment banks for over a decade in the following missions:

Digitalization and modernization of the Treasury function (calls for tender, implementation of TMS and bank communication tools, migration of bank formats, etc.)
Application maintenance: AMOA support (Kyriba, KTP, SAP BCM, Trax), application manager in TMA (Cash Pooler)
Transition Management

Thanks to my transversal profile, I master both functional and technical language. This dual expertise allows me to accurately translate client needs into concrete solutions, while ensuring fluid communication between different stakeholders. I thus play a facilitator role, guaranteeing team alignment and project success.
