At AAJ EXPRESS LOGISTICS LIMITED, I provide financial oversight as the organization expands across branches, safeguarding liquidity, compliance, and financial integrity. I’ve supported growth from 5 to 35 branches while decentralizing accounting operations.

I supervise bank reconciliations exceeding ₦500M and review financial statements, cash flow, and general ledger activity. Stronger internal controls reduced unexplained balance variances by over 90%.

Earlier, as an Accountant, I handled daily transactions and reconciliations across multiple branches, improving reconciliation turnaround time by 30%. As Bursar at ARK FOUNDATION SCHOOLS, I increased fee collection by 25% through structured follow-up and payment processes.
