What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior role in finance reporting, planning or asset/facilities management where I can lead forecasting, asset optimisation and process transformation while collaborating cross-functionally to drive efficiency and growth.

I am a seasoned Chartered Accountant with over eight years of experience leading financial reporting, planning and fixed-asset management across large portfolios. I have managed capital assets exceeding BWP1.7 billion and driven measurable portfolio growth, improved returns, and higher asset turnover.

I have a strong track record of operationalising finance processes — I streamlined budgeting and monthly reporting (reducing turnaround by 30%), led a national asset tagging programme reaching 97% site coverage, and increased asset disposal revenue substantially. I collaborate across finance, projects and operations to deliver data-driven decision support and cost-saving outcomes.

I bring a practical, results-focused leadership style, formal training through a Management Development Programme and ongoing MSc project management studies, and a commitment to IFRS compliance, forecasting accuracy and asset optimisation. I am seeking senior roles in finance reporting, planning or asset and facilities management where I can apply strategic financial stewardship and process transformation.
