About Ed

I am here to assist you in modeling your operations and establishing effective connections among your various systems.

With 10 years of experience as a freelance professional, I have worked in France, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and Australia. Thanks to this diverse experience, I am capable of quickly starting on any project, even in the absence of prior documentation.

I am an expert in IBM Planning Analytics Cognos TM1 and Excel, proficient in VBA, M language, and DAX.

If you prefer to avoid the high costs of an FP&A system, I can design an auditable management accounting system capable of handling several billion rows using only Excel Power Query and Power Pivot.

I hold a Master's degree in Management, and I am a qualified accountant with MAAT (Member of the Association of Accounting Technicians).

My daily rate varies depending on the nature of the project, its duration, and the percentage of on-site work required.

    Developed a model to calculate full compensation packages for Cabin Crew and Pilots by rank and country. Created a frequency function that generates temporary cubes with top-count MDX queries to identify the most common pay patterns. The primary objective was to enable effective crew compensation comparisons across countries, including variable pay components and excluding employees who didn’t receive the full normal pay for their rank in the last 12 months.

    Crew Finance FTE Model: Designed a single source of truth for the Crew Community FTE (operational, payroll, and target), integrating budget data, forecasts and surplus/deficit variance tracking with detailed commentary. Developed TM1 rules, including calculations for non-zero averages and productivity metrics.

    Direct Operating Cost Model: Automated the calculation of cost per flown passenger and cost per sector, for airport nominal charges and ground handling costs. Developed a workspace interface to add new nominal charges and automatically email the CSV output.
