What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own IFRS/GAAP financial reporting, strengthen internal controls, handle VAT/PAYE compliance, and use data analytics to improve forecasting, cost control, and decision-making.

I’m a highly analytical, detail-oriented Accountant with 5+ years of experience in financial reporting, auditing, budgeting, and tax compliance. I leverage accounting software, ERP systems, and data analytics to ensure accuracy, optimize costs, and support executive decision-making.

In my Senior Accountant role at CTCO Investment Company, I prepared monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in compliance with IFRS, improving reporting accuracy by 20%. I led a team of 3 accountants to reconcile payables and receivables, reducing outstanding receivables by 15%, and implemented an expense tracking system that saved $50,000 annually. I also coordinated with external auditors, reducing audit queries by 30%, and automated payroll processing in Sage, cutting processing time from 5 days to 2 days.

Previously at Batmus Logistics, I managed general ledger entries, prepared and filed tax returns with 100% compliance, and ran monthly bank reconciliations that saved $3M in errors. I’ve also supported budgeting through variance analysis, led travel expense tracking improvements, and contributed to due diligence during a major merger or acquisition. With an ICAN Chartered Accountant background and a Master’s in Data Science & Analytics, I bring both compliance rigor and practical data-driven problem-solving to every engagement.
