With a proven ability to meet SLA targets, resolve complex discrepancies, and collaborate across Procurement, Finance, and IT, I’ve helped streamline workflows and enhance reporting accuracy. My contributions include supporting automation projects that improved AP efficiency by 18% and designing dashboards that increased data visibility by 20%. Recognised with the “Employee of the Year” award at Infosys and “Star of the Quarter” at Wipro, I’ve consistently demonstrated a results-driven approach. I take pride in building strong vendor relations, improving team capabilities, and delivering audit-compliant processes that support organisational success.
