What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth, teamwork, and impactful contributions.

In my current role at Providus Bank, I have successfully conducted daily general ledger reviews, detected fraudulent transactions, and managed the account opening process for over 150 customers weekly. My previous experience as a profit center manager at United Bank for Africa allowed me to onboard fintech partners and manage significant loan portfolios, demonstrating my ability to drive business growth while maintaining rigorous internal controls. I am passionate about using my skills in data analysis and visualization to enhance operational efficiency and support strategic decision-making.
