What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values financial integrity.

I am a results-driven finance professional with a robust background in accounting, financial analysis, revenue monitoring, and strategic budget planning. My extensive experience managing financial operations, including bank reconciliation, payroll, tax compliance, and expenditure control, has equipped me with the skills necessary to deliver precise and timely reports. I utilize accounting software such as Tally ERP, QuickBooks, and iTax to streamline processes and maintain strict adherence to legal and internal controls.

Holding a Certified Investment and Financial Analyst qualification with KASNEB and a degree in Economics, I combine technical expertise with a keen eye for detail to drive financial efficiency. My ability to analyze financial data and support organizational growth through effective revenue and budget management has been a cornerstone of my career. I am committed to maintaining financial integrity and transparency, ensuring that all operations align with forecasted expenditure plans and compliance regulations.
