What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a finance role where I can strengthen project accounting, reconciliations, financial reporting, budget monitoring, cash-flow management, audit readiness, and compliance.

At Aquaculture Barn Limited, I managed project finance across 17 months, delivering monthly reporting, cash-flow monitoring, invoice processing, vendor payments, budget monitoring, and audit documentation. I closed the project with zero cash-flow and bank reconciliation variances.

I've also supported NGO finance at Act Change Transform and programme operations at Self Help Africa, strengthening bookkeeping, reconciliations, donor reporting, asset controls, and documentation. I bring 4+ years of experience using Microsoft Excel, Sage, and QuickBooks to keep financial records accurate, compliant, and decision-ready.
