AKANNI JOSEPH OPEYEMI, ACA

I’m a detail-oriented Chartered Accountant (ACA) with dual experience across commercial financial accounting, audit assurance, and tax compliance workflows. I focus on turning complex transactional activity into clear, compliant reporting that supports executive decision-making.

In my current role as an Audit Associate & Tax Compliance Officer, I assist with risk-based audit planning and fieldwork, including preliminary reviews of financial statements, accounting records, and internal controls. I also prepare responses to audit inquiries and ensure tax positions are supported with complete documentation.

I’m strongly experienced with maintaining general ledger integrity, finalizing trial balances, and preparing board-ready financial statements in strict alignment with IFRS standards. I streamline monthly statutory tax filings (including VAT and WHT), using platforms like the NRS REV360 portal to improve accuracy and timeliness.

Before audit-focused work, I’ve handled billing/account functions, reconciliations, and financial reporting for management review, and I’ve also taught Financial Accounting, Business Studies, and Commerce. I bring a disciplined, ethics-driven approach, combining attention to detail with practical execution for audit and compliance outcomes.
