Background

About Chris Collins

I am a seasoned business executive with 25+ years of financial planning & analysis, senior leadership, and strategic business planning experience in the financial services sector. Recognized for demonstrating a natural aptitude for directing change management and implementations, as well as for streamlining policies and procedures, and creating complex costing, billing, and reporting models, I have a history of contributing to company growth throughout my career. Professional focal points include month end close, budgeting & forecasting, 5-year plans, balance sheet & PL reporting, consolidations, metrics & KPIs, unit costing, product and client profitability, volumes & headcount, account reconciliations & accruals, cross-functional team leadership, and senior management presentation. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilization of effective communication skills, leadership skills, as well as financial acumen, procedural analysis, and resource management to support efficiency and maximum returns for global multi-legal entity corporations. Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, technical and managerial expert who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver profitable results on time and under budget. I am interested in contacting former colleagues and managers, as well as other professionals in my field. Feel free to contact me through this profile if you wish to connect.
