What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in finance that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative company culture.

I am a highly-skilled finance professional with over 8 years of experience in financial analysis and reporting. Currently, I serve as the Deputy General Manager at Hayleys PLC, Sri Lanka’s largest listed diversified conglomerate. In this role, I am responsible for the preparation of quarterly and annual Consolidated Financial Statements, ensuring that our shareholders receive accurate and timely information. My expertise extends to delivering client-focused, high-impact financial analysis and reporting to the Board, where I highlight the impact of internal and external developments on the Group’s financial performance.

Prior to my current position, I worked at KPMG, where I engaged in audits of large multinational organizations, including Orica and Treasury Wine Estates. My experience at KPMG allowed me to develop a solid understanding of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and to manage multiple client engagements effectively. I have consistently demonstrated my ability to present audit results to Boards of Directors and provide high-level recommendations for improvement, showcasing my commitment to excellence in financial management.
