Career Summary and Achievements
CH2M Hill Engineering, Inc., Englewood, CO 2005 - 2016
AP Technology Supervisor
Manage all Oracle AP Superuser duties (financial options, accounts payable options, world-wide bank
setups, and global tax setups) in a Shared Services B2B environment. This included about 200
entities worldwide for an 8 Billion dollar company. Initially this position included supervising a staff of
eight, and was responsible all disbursements domestically and overseeing international payments.
With the conversion of R12, the duties became more involved in testing and process mapping of
financial processes. This included ensuring an accurate conversion of international and domestic
Invoice and Payment processes.
• Analyze, improve and automate (where possible) AP Processes through Oracle set up
optimization, or process creation. In addition to creating the process, responsibilities included
performance optimization, process documentation, creating training documents and training
the staff on these processes.
• As AP Technology Supervisor, supervised a staff of eight (including department budgeting and
supervisory responsibilities). This position also oversaw the Disbursement area, and included
issuing payments, positive pay and void payment processes. This position was responsible for
insuring accurate and timely payments.
• Automated the domestic check run process. This resulted in decreasing the headcount
processing check payments by six FTA.
• Created both an initial manual positive pay file process and then automated that process. This
allowed far greater security and fraud prevention in payment processes.
• Fully automated the ACH process. This transformed a manual process that initially required
2.5 FTEs to a quick daily overview to confirm file totals.
• Created an Ipayment process and integrated this with standard Oracle payment processes.
This included reporting and reconciliation tools.

2. • Created and implemented various worldwide electronic payment process. This included
regions and formats as diverse as: Europe (SEPA), MENA region (via HSBC) and APAC (via
JP Morgan). This allowed both the automation of payments in various areas, but also opened
up new regions to company sales.
• Created withholding tax processes (mainly via standard Oracle functionality) for various
international regions. The career highlight was to automate various countries in the MENA
region that had previously resulted in tax fines over one million dollars.
• As Oracle Financials “guru,” acted as liaison between Finance and IT. This included being an
AP and Accounting representative and tester in a number of Oracle conversions most recently
with R12. This included testing, creating test cases, and ultimately correcting the inherent
backlog of invoice issues invariably created during such conversions.
• Central point of contact for vendor related items, managed and supported the testing of
patches. Upgrades and new releases.
• Research, evaluate and correct issues related to month end close.
• Reporting skills include extensive ad-hoc reporting in Global Data Warehouses via BI,
Business Objects, Crystal as well as SQL via ODBC connections in MS Access. This reporting
was employed in various areas, including Cash Forecasting, Audit issues, and financial
research.
