Finance analyst with 14+ years in budgeting, compliance, and payroll accuracy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly motivated finance professional with over 14 years of experience, focused on strategic budget management, compliance oversight, and payroll analysis. I’ve built a strong track record of improving internal control and supporting positive cash flow through disciplined financial planning and reporting.
In my most recent role as a Senior Financial Analyst /Compliance Manager, I led financial planning and analysis for a team of 12 and managed budgets exceeding $2.5 million annually. I monitored internal processes for compliance with laws, regulations, and internal policies, conducted audits to strengthen compliance programs, and led investigations with clear corrective actions. I also improved forecasting accuracy by 9% year-over-year and implemented a risk assessment framework to mitigate potential financial discrepancies.
Previously, as a Senior Finance Officer, I led payroll reconciliation for a 1,000+ employee organization, improving financial accuracy and reducing errors by 5%. I managed payroll transactions in Oracle GL, produced budget/account reporting, analyzed financial data, and built financial models for decision support—always ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations. I bring practical strengths in management accounts, accruals & prepayments reconciliation, internal controls, and audit-ready reporting, along with hands-on experience integrating new financial software to enhance data accuracy.
