About Jerren Banks

My current professional experience has allowed me the opportunity to work closely with the Partners, Managing Directors, Finance Directors, Senior Finance Managers, Senior Pricing Managers, Senior Revenue Managers, and Continuous Improvement Managers to assist with preparing, researching and developing monthly financial audits, monthly revenue forecast, and monthly sales forecast. I have a thorough understanding and direct knowledge of current trends and developments in finance, standard accounting procedures and related applications. My work experience has afforded me the ability to work with limited supervision and apply analytical skills to problem solving and decision-making in the field of finance. In addition, I perform quantitative analysis of adhoc financial pricing deficiency reports using Microsoft Excel, Tableau, and SAP to identify and troubleshoot pricing irregularities. In addition, I have also worked closely with CPAs to conduct Compliance and Financial Statement Audits. All audits were performed in accordance with General Accepted Accounting Principles.
