What I'm looking for

I'm looking for accounting or finance work where I can improve financial reporting, reconciliations, internal controls, cost management, and decision-making while continuing my professional development.

I've improved financial controls, reporting accuracy, and operating costs across Rhapsody Restaurant & Bar, Ericsson Nigeria, and PPS Professional Services.

At Rhapsody Restaurant & Bar, I reconcile daily revenue across POS, cash, and electronic payments with 100% recording accuracy. I reduced food and beverage costs by 15% and lowered overall operating costs from 52% to 40% within three months through cost-ratio analysis and targeted controls.

As a Virtual Bookkeeper at Ericsson Nigeria, I maintained records for 100+ member accounts with zero reported ledger discrepancies and managed investment portfolios exceeding ₦150 million. I also resolved reconciliation issues and prepared reports supporting investment decisions.

My audit foundation includes substantive testing, analytical reviews, and statutory audit support across 15+ SME and corporate engagements annually. I bring practical experience in financial reporting, reconciliations, bookkeeping, inventory, and cost control using Excel, QuickBooks, Sage, and accounting systems.
