What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role in a compliance-focused, growth-oriented company where I can strengthen controls, implement ERP solutions, and drive cost and collections improvements.

I am a finance and accounting professional with over eight years of hands-on experience in financial reporting, tax compliance, budgeting, audit management, and accounts receivable. I have a proven track record of implementing ERP solutions (QuickBooks, SAP, ELBS) and process improvements that reduced operational costs by 15%, improved collections by 30%, and increased profitability by 20%.

My career includes roles as Finance Manager/Accounts Manager, Inventory Audit Officer, and Accounts Intern, where I led internal and external audits, ensured compliance with IFRS, GAAP, VAT and other tax regimes, and achieved 98% stock accuracy across multiple locations. I hold advanced degrees in accounting, project management and finance, and professional certification as a CPA.

I seek opportunities where I can apply deep accounting expertise and systems knowledge to strengthen controls, streamline reporting, and drive financial performance—particularly in environments prioritizing compliance, scalability, and measurable cost improvement.
