Beatrice Misigo
@beatricemisigo
I am an accounting and audit professional with experience in financial reporting, internal controls, risk assessments and data analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a CPA(K) trained internal auditor and accountant with strong experience in auditing, risk management, finance and accounting across SACCOs, NGOs and private companies. I combine technical proficiency in audit tools and accounting systems with a thorough understanding of IFRS, ISA and local taxation to deliver reliable financial controls and reporting.
I have led data migration work streams, acted as head of department, reconciled complex bank accounts single-handedly and identified revenue leakages through audit procedures. I am proficient in IDEA, CaseWare, TeamMate, Microsoft Dynamics Navision, QuickBooks, Pastel, e-conomic and advanced Excel, which I apply to improve operational efficiency and audit effectiveness.
I am collaborative, deadline-driven and eager to take on challenging assignments where I can add value immediately while continuing to learn and share knowledge with colleagues at different levels.
