What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow in an organization with clear goals, where I can contribute as a team member to achieve targets, strengthen my payroll and finance skills, and support accurate reporting and compliance.

I’m a finance and payroll-focused professional with a BSc in Banking and Finance and practical training in computer packages (distinction). In my current Payroll Assistant role at MAS Intimates Kenya – Export Production Company, I help prepare and process monthly payroll by verifying attendance, overtime records, leave balances, and payroll-related data while maintaining confidentiality.

My experience also includes an internship supporting tax record verification, revenue collection, and compliance activities through accurate data entry, filing, and reconciliation of financial transactions. During my industrial attachment at Kenya Revenue Authority, I downloaded CBK transfer accounts for daily monitoring and reconciliation, performed daily revenue monitoring, and prepared bank reconciliation statements—strengthening my finance reporting, cash management, and compliance mindset.
