Summary
Bringing more than a decade of experience, while working with corporates of all possible sides, in the area of Working Capital. The biggest part of it with a focus on multinational/listed companies leading to high standard when it comes to servicing clients, and that in different areas: problem-solving, negotiating, communicating (both written and oral), a.o.
Comfortable to play a key role, collaborating and engaging with all stakeholders when setting up programs, or working on internal projects.
Over the years, staying curious and having an open mindset on learning new things have always been paramount in my development.
