Nigeria
Message

At Helen Keller Intl., I lead donor proposal budgeting with program and grants teams and prepare internal budgets for the country office. I also prepare financial reports for active projects and check that budgets follow donor and organizational requirements.

I analyze budget variances and develop project forecasts to support decision-making. I also review spending patterns, identify potential underspend or overspend risks, and recommend corrective actions.

Previously, as Finance Officer at Helen Keller Intl., I led month-end financial closures and reporting to HQ across six donor-funded projects. I supported audits and mentored junior staff through training on budgeting and financial reporting.

Earlier, I supported financial reporting and compliance at Civil Society for the Eradication of Tuberculosis in Nigeria-Global Fund MDR-TB, including training 38 community-based organizations. As a Junior Auditor at Olaoluwa & Co. Chartered Accountants, I audited financial records and prepared financial statements and tax returns.
