Hesham AbuBakr

With over 25 years of experience in finance leadership across healthcare, trading, and contracting industries, I bring a proven track record in financial strategy, ERP implementation, and operational efficiency. I specialize in delivering cost optimization, driving cash flow improvements, and building high-impact relationships with banks and key suppliers to strengthen financial positioning. Throughout my career, I’ve made strategic contributions that directly improved the company's bottom line, including: * Cost optimization initiatives that reduced recurring expenses and improved profitability. * Strengthening banking relationships to secure better credit terms, facilities, and financial resilience. * Enhancing supplier negotiations to achieve favorable payment terms and supply chain efficiency. * Implementing cash flow optimization models that ensured operational liquidity and investment agility. * Leading strategic business decisions to close underperforming divisions and redirect resources toward higher-growth opportunities. * Initiating and launching new business units, including laboratories and service centers, aligned with long-term vision and market demand. * Driving financial improvements through data-driven decision-making, forecasting accuracy, and strong governance. I'm passionate about aligning finance with corporate strategy, transforming insights into actionable plans, and enabling executive teams to make sound and timely decisions.
