What I'm looking for

I am looking for a fully-remote role that values data-driven decision-making and offers opportunities for growth.

I am a finance professional with over five years of cross-functional experience in logistics, shipping, and food & beverage sectors. As the Deputy CFO at HMR Transport & Logistics, I have successfully developed an internal JavaScript application that automates financial tracking, saving 10 hours per week in manual reporting. My analytical skills have led to significant cost savings and revenue growth through strategic supplier negotiations and cost optimization projects.

Previously, I served as a Sales and Performance Analyst at Africa Global Logistics, where I built a KPI framework for sales teams across 23 countries, enhancing pipeline visibility significantly. My ability to conduct data-driven analyses has helped identify high-potential regions for investment and growth initiatives. I am passionate about turning raw data into actionable insights that drive business success.
