What I'm looking for

I am looking for roles in credit, finance, or operations where I can apply credit risk and portfolio analysis skills, grow professionally, and contribute to a collaborative team.

I am an experienced accountant and credit officer with a Bachelor’s degree in Banking and Finance and four years of focused professional experience in credit risk management, portfolio analysis, and financial research. I bring strong analytical ability, attention to detail, and consistent accuracy in financial reporting and credit work.

My background includes roles in banking operations, credit and recovery, and part-time accounting where I prepared monthly financial statements, handled KRA filings, performed stock taking, and conducted market research. I have a proven record of maintaining low portfolio at risk (PAR) and delivering timely, accurate results under tight deadlines.

I am a hands-on, self-motivated professional who values continuous learning and team development, excels in quantitative analysis, and communicates complex information clearly in both English and Kiswahili. I seek opportunities where I can contribute strong credit risk, operations, and research skills to drive effective financial decision-making.
