Directed a team of 10 employees in the execution of daily
weekly and monthly settlement and accounting activities for the entire energy trading floor's commerical operations. This included the direct settlement of OTC energy trading (gas and electric) instruments with credit worthy counterparties
settlements of structured contracts
independent brokers
exchange markets and the sale of our generation into the open market (power pools such as PJM
NYISO
NE-ISO
etc.).\n\nIdeas which I architected and developed within the Back Office to improve efficiencies and make the company more competitive were;\n\no An Energy Settlement Hub
which was to take all counterparty transactional information into one \n Hub and simultaneously settle everyone out at the same time. \no An Independent System Operator (power pools: PJM
NY

as well as forecast accounting accruals.

Through clear understanding of the energy trading and commerical business operations I was charged with developing business solutions that improved or maintained the efficiency and quality of the work setting. Through indept knowledge of the operations my goal was to evaluate business practices looking for ways to improve productivity
reduce costs
and fully utilize business resources. \n\nIn the energy trading environment where speed matters
this typically lead to the implementation of application software that did
or supported
the manual work being done by office personnel. Two large scale implementations were; \n\n(1.) a Retail Electric Business Operations System (REBOS) which was an off-shore custom built application to support all aspects of the retail electric commercial operations. My direct involvement ensured the project met it's schedule
budget and scope. \n\n(2.) a Front-to-Back Office overhaul of the applications and systems supporting the trading operations. This initiative touched every applicatoin from the Energy Trading & Risk Management system
Credit and Trading Controls
to Accounting and Reporting. My direct involvement ensured the project met it's schedule
budget and scope. \n
