What I'm looking for

I seek senior finance roles where I can lead financial management, improve revenue controls, and support operational growth in mission-driven organisations. I value collaborative teams, professional development, and measurable impact.

I am an MBA-trained finance professional with a BSc in Accounting and multiple finance certifications, experienced in school and institutional financial management, accounting operations, and revenue control. I have overseen daily bank reconciliations, produced timely financial reports, facilitated audits, and implemented forecasting to reduce risk and unnecessary expenditure.

As a part-time university lecturer and former chief business officer and chief accountant, I combine hands-on accounting systems expertise with leadership in business operations, procurement, and stakeholder relationship management. I deliver practical financial solutions using tools like QuickBooks, Sage, IFMIS, and Excel to improve controls and support organisational growth.
