What I'm looking for

I seek a managerial role that challenges my analytical skills and promotes growth.

I am a Chartered Accountant with over 12 years of extensive experience in Finance and Accounts, specializing in Indirect Taxation. My career has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a passion for driving financial performance. I have successfully led teams in managing day-to-day operations, ensuring compliance with accounting standards, and implementing effective financial strategies.

Throughout my career, I have gained hands-on experience in various aspects of finance, including accounts receivable and payable, budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting. My expertise in GST implementation and compliance has allowed me to advise clients on navigating complex tax regulations. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to align financial strategies with organizational goals.

As I look to the future, I am eager to take on managerial roles that challenge my analytical capabilities and foster professional growth. I am particularly interested in opportunities that allow me to contribute to an organization's success while continuing to develop my skills in finance and accounts.
