What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role where I can apply my accounting, compliance, and procurement skills in a collaborative team focused on accuracy, timely payments, and process improvement.

I am an organized finance professional with nearly five years of experience verifying cost and expense documents, preparing payment vouchers, posting transactions to the general ledger, and ensuring tax and internal control compliance across telecom, construction, and banking sectors. I have a track record of accurate reconciliations, audit support, procurement coordination, and managing cash flow to meet project and operational needs.

In my roles I have improved process reliability by maintaining complete procurement files, liaising with regulatory offices for permits and tax matters, and delivering strong customer service and issue resolution in banking. I bring practical experience in vendor management, budget monitoring, financial forecasting, and cross-functional collaboration to support timely payments and operational efficiency.
