Experienced Bursar and internal auditor with a focus on financial analysis.
What I'm looking for
I am a highly experienced Bursar and assistant chief internal auditor with over 16 years of expertise in financial analysis and auditing. My extensive background has equipped me with a profound understanding of accounting standards, and I have consistently demonstrated my ability to lead teams and improve operational efficiency. My current role as Assistant Director of Audit, Risk, and Compliance at Babcock University allows me to apply my skills in statutory audits and financial oversight, ensuring that all financial processes align with institutional policies.
In addition to my auditing responsibilities, I also serve as a part-time lecturer at Babcock University, where I teach Principles of Accounting. This dual role not only enhances my professional development but also allows me to share my knowledge and experience with the next generation of accountants. My previous positions, including Bursar at Babcock University High School and Senior Accountant for Student Records, have further solidified my expertise in financial management and compliance.
