CAROLINE GATHII
@carolinegathii
I improve cash flow through accounts receivable, credit control, reconciliations, and remote finance operations.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I've improved cash flow at Palmhouse Dairies by reducing debtor days from 180 to 60 and recovering over 75% of overdue balances.
I managed a KSh 28 million debtor portfolio across 55–65 customer accounts, collected an average of KSh 11 million monthly, and reduced billing delays by 30% using Sage ERP.
My finance experience also includes accounts payable, payroll, statutory deductions, supplier payments, inventory reconciliation, petty cash, invoicing, and financial reporting. At Jonjam Ventures, I reconciled daily sales from four branches and prepared monthly profit and loss reports.
I'm equipped for remote accounting and finance operations through structured follow-up, reconciliations, reporting, documentation, and clear written communication. I use QuickBooks, Sage ERP, Tally ERP, and advanced Microsoft Excel.
