Detail-oriented business analyst with expertise in financial management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Business Desk Analyst with extensive experience in financial management and data analysis. Over the past few years, I have honed my skills in credit control and financial reporting while working with global brands such as Colgate and Persil. My role as a Credit Control Officer at Chandaria Industries involved managing credit notes processing and overseeing accounts receivable, which significantly improved cash flow and reduced credit risk exposure.
In addition to my analytical skills, I have a strong background in utilizing ERP systems like SAP and Sage to streamline operations and enhance financial accuracy. My previous experience as a Data Assistant at Colgate-Palmolive allowed me to maintain a 99.5% accuracy rate in financial data records and improve data validation processes. I am passionate about leveraging data to optimize business strategies and drive revenue growth, as demonstrated by my successful implementation of cost-reduction plans and automated financial tracking tools.
