I bring value to the position of Controller/Corp Controller. I have experience in Manufacturing, Construction, Foodservice, Legal, Retail and Audit at the senior management level. I have most recently been employed as Financial Director for a specialty millwork manufacturing company. This company is also in the construction business. I have had full P&L, Balance Sheet, Accounting function, and banking/lending responsibilities, and contract administration. Recently completed a project compiling all databases into one process to run cost results. I have a short learning curve and can assimilate quickly into any environment. I am preparing to take the 2 parts of the CPA exam I need for a certificate, by June 2010.
