My clients include a healthcare service provider and a startup ticketing company based in the US. My responsibilities include running the payroll, supervising the end-to-end accounting process, analyzing financial reports for profitability, collection efficiency, among other key financial performance indicators. PHINMA-Araullo University Instructor (July 2022 to June 2023) College Dean (June 2023 to June 2024) I was a faculty member of the BS Accountancy program and later, College Dean of the College of Management and Accountancy. My transition to the academe has added a different layer to my industry experience of 15 years. It has helped me understand the generation shift and I feel that this will not only help me in managing a relatively younger team but also, will help me decide on social and economic aspect of a business concern.

Additionally, I had to organize a team to establish a structure for internal control by drafting & eventually implementing sound policies & procedures which would also support the newlyautomated processes. Park Hyatt Dubai Resident Director of Finance January 01, 2015 to November 20, 2016 The key responsibility is to oversee the hotel’s day to day financial activities.

Hyatt Hotels in Dubai Accountant - Payroll December 14, 2008 to September 30, 2012 The main objective of this job is to pay the salaries - correctly, and on time. The challenge is to meet that objective for almost 2,000 employees for the 3 Hyatt hotels in the area. An excellent communication skill is needed to be able to deal with employee queries as well as good IT skill to manage the payroll software. High level of accuracy and attention to details, problem-solving ability and a good time management are just some of the skills I have further developed to perform the job well. Moreover, honesty and integrity is a must for this very sensitive and rewarding position. Hyatt Regency Dubai Cost Auditor December 01, 2007 to December 14, 2008 Minimizing the shrinkages, particularly for food and beverages as well as monitoring the monthly cost impact of these against the revenue was my primary concern as a cost auditor. Strong grip on the company’s policies and procedures as well as routine physical audit check ensures adherence to the budgeted cost. Accounts Receivable Supervisor November 01, 2006 to December 01, 2007 I was only given one challenge when I assumed this position – bring down the number of days to 30. It was not an easy task then but three months later, I was able to direct my team of three on the right track and I was consistently motivating them that we were already swinging between 33-38 days from the previous 40-45 range. It took the team six months to hit the target number of days of 30. Proactive approach to payment follow up, sending the correct billing on time in addition to proper coordination, teamwork and establishing a mutual relationship with the clients made it possible for us to achieve the required results. Accounts Receivable Staff October 04, 2005 to November 01, 2006 My main job description as an A/R staff is to assist the Accounts Receivable Supervisor in achieving the primary target of maintaining a low number of days of accounts receivable. Keen knowledge on the contracted and promotional rates offered by the hotel to the clients is a must to ensure correct billing and to minimize future disputes. General Cashier October 01, 2004 to October 04, 2005 This job requires me to handle all cash transactions of the hotel. The task includes ensuring cash receipts (i.e., local and foreign currencies, cheques and other cash equivalents) are properly recorded, deposited to and credited by the bank. Diligence and good organizing skills are required for this job as it demands ensuring that the cash requisite of the hotel for daily operation is maintained. Outlet Cashier November 11, 2003 to September 30, 2004 My first stint as hotelier was like a “crash course” in hotel operations. Being placed at the heart of Food and Beverage department as a cashier surely demands presence of mind and being in control under pressure. Of course, guest satisfaction is the ultimate goal.
