Noel Pereira

I’m a results-driven Senior Finance Leader and Financial Controller with 24+ years of progressive, multi-industry experience across India, UAE, Oman, and Canada. I focus on financial control, FP&A, cash flow and working capital optimization, and decision-ready MIS and board-level reporting. In my current role as General Manager – Finance & Operations at VITU Realty Group (Jun 2024 – Present), I lead Finance, Accounts, Legal, and Operations with a team of 10 across multiple projects. I introduced a QR-code based automated billing system that reduced billing cycle time by 50% and improved inventory accuracy by 40%, while also building project-wise forward P&L and variance analysis dashboards for board review. Earlier, I headed end-to-end finance operations at Saraswathi Educational Trust, reducing fee collection delays by 35% through branch-level internal audit controls and strengthening AR governance. At GoFleet Corporation (Canada, Remote / Offshore), I improved recurring invoice collections by 20% and extended vendor payout cycles by 7 days to strengthen net working capital, and I delivered monthly board-level MIS plus annual budgeting and FP&A presentations. I’ve also pioneered finance process automation, including RPA for MIS data entry that reduced reporting turnaround by 7 days at Royalworld Facilitators, and I’ve managed audits and compliance to ensure smooth statutory closures across jurisdictions. I’m now seeking a senior finance leadership role (Financial Controller / Finance Manager / GM Finance) in a remote-first UK organization.
