What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role that blends finance administration with data analysis and reporting, where I can strengthen data integrity and automate insights using Excel/VBA and advanced analytics—while continuing to grow toward quantitative, data-driven decision-making.

I’m a motivated, detail-oriented finance professional with over 3 years of experience in financial administration, data analysis, and reporting. In my roles, I’ve owned data review, reconciliation, quality assurance, and audit-ready documentation to support transparent communication and operational accuracy.

I’m especially focused on turning raw financial information into decision-ready outputs—generating daily reporting on audit volumes, errors, and corrective actions, tracking sales performance, and managing compliance-heavy workflows like direct debit submissions and bordereaux preparation. I’m also expanding my technical expertise through a University of Cape Town Data Science short course (including statistical learning and clustering) and preparing to pursue Quantitative Analysis at UNISA in 2026 to deepen data-driven decision-making in finance.
