What I'm looking for

I seek roles that combine analytics and finance—building dashboards, improving controls, and enabling decision-making in collaborative, growth-focused teams.

I am a finance professional with a strong background in accounting, internal audit, compliance, and data analytics. I hold a B.Sc. in Accounting and H.N.D/N.D credentials, and I combine technical reporting skills with practical auditing experience.

In my current freelance role I build reporting systems, dashboards and modules using Python, SQL, Excel and Power BI to deliver actionable insights and support business performance across sectors. I collaborate with business clients and researchers to design data structures and provide training to operational managers on dashboard use.

Previously, I held auditor and compliance roles where I led internal audits, stock reconciliations, cash and receivables controls, and process-improvement recommendations that strengthened controls and reduced risk. I have experience in finance operations including VAT/WHT posting, payroll support, and transaction processing.

I bring a practical, detail-oriented approach focused on linking data to operational priorities, monitoring risks, and enabling better financial and operational decisions through clear reporting and controls.
