ABOUT TRACIE CORDEIRO
I am a CPA with over 20 years experience in the accounting field across diverse industries, including aerospace, transportation, manufacturing, performing arts and currently a not-for-profit organization providing micro-financing as well as health and educational services to Guatemalan women in poverty. I am based in Colorado and took on the role of CFO at Friendship Bridge in October 2018 and then my current role as President and CEO in January 2023. As the President and CEO of Friendship Bridge, I am honored to lead its 250 employees, most of which are based in rural Guatemala, by helping to drive its mission of empowering over 34 thousand women, mainly indigenous Maya living in rural Guatemala, to build a better life through financial inclusion and providing them access to education and preventive health services.Prior to Friendship Bridge, I worked in Australia for 14 years, Spain for six years as well as in Phoenix, Arizona for two years. My experiences abroad have provided me with a wealth of knowledge from both a professional and personal perspective. By working for KPMG in both the US and Spain, I gained a strong understanding of US GAAP and its differences with international reporting standards (IFRS). Whilst working as a senior auditor for Honeywell EMEA Corporate Audit team, I had a strong focus on internal controls across all facets of business processes (financial, procurement, IT, HR, etc.) and helped lead the groundwork of Sarbanes Oxley controls testing across the region. I continued my corporate audit focus after migrating to Australia for personal reasons as Asia Pacific internal controls senior auditor and, within four months, accepted a promotion as Financial Controller of the ACS business in Australia and New Zealand.Specialties: efficient and effective financial reporting, review and improvement of processes and internal controls, US GAAP, IFRS, financial system implementation (NetSuite and SunSystems), purchase order system implementation (iPOS), fluent in Spanish
