What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role in accounting or auditing where I can own reconciliations, prepare audit-ready reports, support month-end close, and strengthen process controls—while continuing to grow my skills in finance systems and analytics.

I’m a dedicated and reliable professional accountant with a bachelor’s degree in accounting and CPA 2 certification. I excel in maintaining accurate financial records and optimizing processes, with a detail-oriented approach that supports timely reporting.

Currently, I’m working as an Accountant at Bloomingdale Roses Kenya Limited under the Bobmil Group of Companies. I reconcile and verify transactions, prepare periodic financial reports, support treasury operations, manage invoicing/billing/expense tracking, and reconcile bank statements while monitoring cash flow.

Previously, I supported the credit and payables functions across the Bobmil and Brenntag teams—monitoring outstanding balances, following up on overdue invoices, maintaining ageing debtor reports, and managing allocation of incoming payments and credit notes. I also handled daily transaction recording, invoice processing, monthly bank and credit card reconciliations, and month-end closing support with audit-ready documentation.

Earlier in my career, I worked as an External Audit Associate on a fixed-term contract at PKF Consulting LLP, supporting audit planning, fieldwork, audit working papers, and drafting audit reports and management letters. I’m committed to continuous learning and professional growth within auditing, accounting, and finance—leveraging tools like Quick Books, Zoho Books, Microsoft Excel, Oracle, and SAP.
