What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my financial expertise in a dynamic organization focused on impactful projects.

I am a Chartered Accountant with a wealth of experience in financial management, compliance, and grant management. Over the years, I have held various senior positions, including Director of Finance for the DAI SUN TA Project, where I led financial operations under stringent USAID regulations. My expertise lies in developing and implementing financial systems that ensure compliance and efficiency, while also providing strategic financial guidance to senior management.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed large budgets, including an average annual budget of USD 28 million for the DAI SUN TA Project and USD 8 million for WWF-Zambia. My role has often involved supervising finance teams, ensuring timely financial reporting, and conducting audits. I am passionate about using my skills to support organizations in achieving their financial goals while maintaining high standards of accountability and transparency.
