Dear Viccy,
By means of this letter, I would like to share with you ardent interest in applying for the VP Finance, Asia Pacific position at Cochlear.
With 20 years of experience in finance and controllership in large US listed companies, I have successfully managed finance functions across the Asia Pacific and optimized business processes to help business achieve and accelerate revenue growth through systems transformation and innovative financial insights. I believe my skills and expertise would hence make me an ideal candidate for the job.
Systems transformation, finance business partnering and team leadership have been my more competencies. For instance, in my prior capacity as a Director Finance at Oracle (APAC revenue $6.4BN), I led the development of the business partnering model leveraging onshore and offshore resources in supporting and closely engaging with business in closing several complex multi-million dollar deals with top tier customers in the APAC region.
At Teradata too, I supported the spin off, NYSE listing, transformation and revenue growth in the APAC business from $200M to $270M by successfully building and scaling the revenue finance function for the APAC region. My role also significantly involved supporting business in commercially structuring large technology deals (direct and partner led) for top tier customers in the APAC region.
Finally, now, as the Finance Controller at ASC (SECOM), I lead the rollout of cloud ERP (MS Dynamics 365), migrating the mature start-up business from their legacy on-premise systems into the cloud (SaaS), introducing new financial reporting model and dashboard metrics / KPIs to support strategic business decision making.
Leading people is my passion, I am skilled at inspirationally motivating teams to top performance and this is evidenced by multiple LinkedIn and 360 feedback reviews I have been fortunate to receive.
Lastly, I have executed projects (finance, risk, credit and compliance) in several countries and possess tremendous international work experience across APAC & Japan. This has upskilled me in not only understanding and applying local commercial and compliance knowledge but also in effectively leveraging cultural sensitivities when working in a multi-cultural work environment.
I believe this role is an excellent opportunity for me to roll my sleeves up and contribute. What also attracts me to Cochlear is its leadership in the implantable hearing solution business, technological innovation, and above all, it’s mission to empower people to connect with others and live a full life, which is something I am very passionate about. And am thrilled at the prospects of working in an environment that empowers, transforms and innovates. Passionate about that.
Thank you for considering my application and I would appreciate the opportunity to continue this conversation further at an interview.
I remain at your disposal should you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Jami Robinson
