SUPERINTENDENT FINANCE BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP
Summary
Dynamic and highly qualified Controller with extensive knowledge of accounting principles, who adapts seamlessly to constantly evolving accounting processes and technologies.
Accomplishments
- Achieved controllable overhead cost savings by working with each department to review each line item within their budget to cut approx. $3m from the FY16 final budget. Monthly one-on-one meetings continue to sustain the cost savings within FY16.
- Implemented the new Budgeting & Forecasting system within the organization and were the front-runners in the up load of the budget for the year. New Mexico Coal (NMC) resolved many issues on behalf of the Coal Business Unit because we were the first to start loading into the new system. In addition, we simultaneously loaded the budget into the new Navajo Mine divested structure on time with no issues.
- Conducted detailed and analytical review of all Corporation Alignment Process deliverables (Life of Asset, 5 Year Plan, 2 Year Budget) each year from FY2011 to FY2017.
- Managed the internal audit of the BHP Billiton Financial Statements to obtain the first Sarbanes-Oxley Certification in FY2007.
Experience

- Directed a team of four to ensure all internal and external financial reporting tasks were executed in accordance with published instructions and timetables. Deliverables included monthly forecasts, monthly variance analysis between budgets and actuals, annual budgets, etc.
- Coached and mentored team members to sustain productivity levels following the announcement of the sale of both Operations owned by NMC to third parties.
- Fostered a culture that supported open communication between team members and functions to build trust and improve employee morale.

- Increased the use of global BHPB standard metrics by encouraging management to populate internal finance reports using 1SAP sourced data. Previous methods relied on metrics calculated outside of the system, which caused misalignment between local key performance indicators (KPIs) with global KPIs that determined our end of the year performance.
- Established various checklist/sign-off sheets to improve forecast accuracy, ensure audit trail of approvals was maintained, and assign accountability for each deliverable across the team.
