Background

About Shyam Baheti

I am a seasoned finance and operations leader with over 21 years of experience in Accounts Receivable (AR), Order-to-Cash (O2C), Credit Management, Collections, Cash Applications, and Global Process Transformation. My professional journey spans across BPOs and captive shared service environments, managing high-impact teams across North America, EMEA, and APAC regions for global industry leaders. I specialize in building efficient, customer-focused finance operations with a sharp focus on digital transformation, automation, and end-to-end process excellence. My expertise lies in standardizing global AR/O2C processes, reducing DSO, increasing collection efficiency, and improving customer experience while managing diverse stakeholder expectations. A key strength I bring is change leadership – leading cross-functional transitions, system migrations, process redesigns, and data-driven improvements through Lean Six Sigma, PMP methodologies, and advanced tools like SAP, Tableau, and Python. I thrive in dynamic, multicultural environments and have consistently delivered measurable business outcomes while nurturing strong, people-centric teams. I am passionate about blending financial controls with agility and innovation to create resilient finance functions. I look forward to connecting with professionals and organizations seeking a transformational leader in finance operations and shared services strategy.
