What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead audit, financial advisory and operational risk work—strengthening internal controls (SOX), improving governance transparency, and delivering practical, value-driven insights that help leaders make better decisions.

I’m a Big 4 finance and risk professional with strong experience in accounting, financial analysis, and operational risk management across multiple industries. I currently work as a Senior Associate at Deloitte, leading complex audit and advisory engagements.

I focus on strengthening internal control environments by assessing and strengthening internal control frameworks (SOX) to reduce risk exposure and improve compliance across key business processes. I also partner with senior stakeholders to improve governance structures and enhance decision-making transparency.

Across engagements, I analyse financial and operational data to identify inefficiencies and deliver insights that support sound decision-making. I’ve led audit teams, managed multiple deadlines, and coordinated cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality results within engagement timelines, including an international secondment experience at Deloitte & Touche Namibia.

Before Deloitte, I built foundational expertise at KPMG Nigeria as a Risk Analyst–Trainee, where I performed ongoing operational risk monitoring and produced weekly, insight-driven reports for senior management. I also contribute beyond work through AIESEC, including Finance Board Member oversight of financial reporting and a Director role in partnership development.
