Shivam Handa — Operations Associate

I am a result-driven and detail-oriented finance and costing professional with over six years of progressive experience in accounting, cost management, and financial analysis across the manufacturing and industrial sector. Having qualified CMA Intermediate and currently pursuing CMA Final, I combine strong academic knowledge with hands-on expertise in cost audits, product costing, financial reporting, and balance sheet assistance. My career started as an assistant under a Chartered Accountant during graduation, where I gained valuable exposure to audits, compliance checks, and financial reporting. Later, as a Junior Officer at Kangaro Group of Companies (2019–2024), I developed strong expertise in cost analysis, reconciliation, NPD variance reviews, and supply chain support. Presently, as a Senior Executive with Hero Steels Limited, I manage end-to-end costing activities including raw material valuation, inventory aging, budget preparation, monthly cost runs in SAP, and cost audit report finalization in coordination with auditors. I possess strong proficiency in SAP S4/HANA, Tally ERP 9.0, MS Office, and Power BI. By transforming raw financial and operational data into actionable insights, I create dashboards and reports that help management make data-driven decisions. I also bring technical exposure to manufacturing processes, machines, and operations, which allows me to align costing strategies with production realities, ensuring both cost efficiency and quality. My key strengths include product costing, process costing, budget control, cost audit compliance, and variance analysis, along with a sharp focus on cost-saving measures and efficiency improvements. I have successfully contributed to NPD projects, packaging cost comparisons, and inter-unit costing, ensuring accurate allocation of fixed, variable, and tooling costs. Recognized for being hardworking, energetic, and sincere, I thrive under pressure, make effective decisions within deadlines, and enjoy working in collaborative team environments. My ability to present financial data clearly, solve problems quickly, and coordinate across departments has helped me build trust with management and colleagues alike. I aim to advance further in cost and management accounting by contributing my expertise to technologically driven organizations. With a strong academic foundation, proven industry experience, and continuous learning through CMA Final, I am committed to delivering value through cost efficiency, compliance, and strategic financial insights.
