I lead finance transformation, IFRS reporting, governance, and growth initiatives.

I'm leading finance at First Mutual Health Services, overseeing reporting, budgeting, treasury, compliance, audit coordination, and governance support for three Boards. I also led the migration from Sage 1000 to Sage Intacct to improve automation and reporting.

Previously, I managed the IFRS 4 to IFRS 17 transition at NicozDiamond Insurance Company and delivered audit work at PwC Zimbabwe and Fairvalue Chartered Accountants. I'm a Chartered Accountant with experience in cost optimisation, financial modelling, Board reporting, ESG governance, and process improvement.
