What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a senior finance role in Canada or Europe where precision, integrity, and high-impact financial management drive organizational growth.

At Lebanese American School, I manage full-cycle accounting and deliver monthly financial closings on time. I implemented an AP/AR tracking system that reduced overdue receivables by 25% within the first semester.

At S & G Group, I maintained consolidated accounting records across Lebanon and the UAE. I standardized closing processes, reducing the close from 10 to 6 business days, and prepared corporate tax returns for both jurisdictions on time.

At Paradox Software / Sukkar Elevators, I managed general ledger operations and prepared monthly financial statements. I also implemented internal financial controls that reduced unauthorized expense approvals by 40%.

I’m an IFRS-certified Senior Accountant and CPA candidate with experience in financial reporting, tax compliance, reconciliations, and internal controls. I’m seeking a senior finance role in Canada or Europe where precision, integrity, and high-impact financial management support organizational growth.
