About Vanessa Maerefat
As an expert in partnering with clients to develop a strategic plan and leading business transformation – we deliver tangible results for corporates, boards, private equity firms, and government agencies facing complex challenges. Experienced in project and program management as well as financial operations, I help organizations transform operations, catapult growth, and accelerate results through decisive informed action. CORPORATE TRANSFORMATION - Led an Oracle software implementation for a client with international operations, ultimately reducing the month-end close process by 5 workdays. Owned the process development, testing and training efforts through the application’s go-live date. BUSINESS & STRATEGIC ANALYSIS - Led and created business analysis to cultivate process and system efficiencies aligned with client leadership’s strategic intent. Prescribed detailed recommendations and roadmaps which could potentially reduce $MM of margin leakage. OPERATIONAL PLANNING - Constructed and transitioned sales forecast models to the client’s FP & A team. Built operational planning models to allow automatic insight into staff resources alongside a projected schedule by shop and calendar labor utilization view. DATA MODELING - Led the design and execution of a long-range financial sustainability model by working across stakeholders to understand the client\'s goals, objectives, and financial outlook to report operating results and projections to Board of Trustees. Leading with skilled strategic insight: I am passionate about implementing innovative future-proof solutions with a natural talent for understanding business needs, developing stakeholder relationships, and delivering easy-to-consume recommendations / results from complex data.
