What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance/accounting leadership role where I can drive accurate reporting, stronger internal controls, compliant processes, and efficient financial administration—using both digital systems and automation to improve performance, including in remote or hybrid operations.

I’m a finance & administration manager and highly accomplished bookkeeper with 32 years of progressive, hands-on experience across bookkeeping, accounting, finance management, administration, and data processing supervision. I focus on maintaining financial accuracy, strengthening internal controls, and enabling sound strategic decisions through reliable reporting.

In my recent and core roles, I directed finance and administration functions to support operational performance and growth—managing budgets, expenditure monitoring, payroll, procurement, and executive management reports. I’ve also developed and implemented financial controls, policies, and administrative systems, while ensuring regulatory compliance and efficient resource utilization.

I lead accounting operations end-to-end: general ledger management, accounts payable/receivable, reconciliations, tax compliance, cash flow administration, and audit preparation. I’ve supervised teams, improved record management and reporting accuracy, and coordinated audits to ensure adherence to standards, procedures, and internal controls.

I bring technology to finance through advanced digital accounting systems and additional expertise in Python software development and AI management. With 3 years of remote bookkeeping experience, I delivered timely, accurate virtual financial operations using digital workflow systems and collaboration tools—backed by professionalism, confidentiality, analytical thinking, and exceptional attention to detail.
