About Scott Shuman

As a Controller at PennComp LLC, I oversee day-to-day accounting operations and manage the company\'s financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting processes. I develop and implement financial policies and procedures to ensure compliance with GAAP and other regulatory requirements, conduct financial analysis to identify areas of improvement, and manage the company\'s tax compliance and reporting requirements. In my role as Procurement Manager, I manage the procurement process from requisition to receipt of goods or services, negotiating contracts and terms to ensure favorable pricing and quality. I also develop and maintain relationships with key suppliers and monitor their performance. Previously, as VP/Senior Internal Auditor at Prosperity Bank, I reviewed the effectiveness and efficiency of financial and operational processes along with internal controls to determine compliance with the bank\'s policies, procedures, and industry best practices. I prepared reports and recommendations for improvements around control design and effectiveness and developed and conducted meetings with departmental business owners, directors, and executive committee members. As an Assurance Senior at Harper & Pearson Company, P.C, I assisted in drafting financial statements for various industries, monitored and supervised a team of individuals on engagements, and participated in recruiting, training, and volunteer committees. My skills include proficiency in Veeam, Microsoft Dynamics, Microsoft Dynamics 365, ConnectWise, ConnectWise Manage, QuoteWerks, Microsoft 365, accounting, financial reporting, and QuickBooks.
