Experience

1. Group Manager - Finance

   Alcon

   Jan 2020 — Present · Bengaluru, IN

   I effectively led the transition of O2C and P2P processes for North America and Latin American countries, aligning with regional process owners and ensuring timely completion, followed by stabilizing all processes within 3 months post-transition through rigorous monitoring and weekly stakeholder meetings to ensure smooth operations and timely issue resolution. Spearheading the Account Managers initiative resulted in a significant decrease in invoice processing time and improved payment accuracy from 70% to 85% while collaborating with the GPO team on a Scanning partner change project led to successful implementation and phased ramp-up. Additionally, I implemented a Duplicate Audit Tool in the Payments process, successfully reducing $3.2 million in duplicate payments within the North America AR process and drove the identification and implementation of several process improvement and automation ideas, resulting in approximately 2500 hours of savings and enhanced operational efficiency. Subsequently, I was promoted to Group Manager, overseeing a team of 60+ associates across AP, AR, and T&E teams for North America and Latin America, setting a clear strategic vision aligned with organizational goals and driving operational excellence, proactive leadership, and collaboration with key stakeholders for business success.
