What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role in a mission-driven organization where I can manage grants, ensure compliance, improve financial processes, and deliver accurate reporting while growing toward ACCA qualification.

I am a motivated Economics graduate and ACCA (in-view) finance professional with hands-on experience in grant management, compliance, budgeting, and accurate financial reporting. I consistently deliver timely ledger entries and bank reconciliations using QuickBooks and standard accounting procedures.

In my recent roles I supported donor-funded projects, managed cashflows, processed vendor payments with 100% accuracy, and streamlined payment and retirement workflows to improve efficiency. I maintain confidentiality, enforce controls to protect against fraud, and ensure compliance with organizational and donor financial policies.

I am goal-driven, detail-oriented, and effective at communicating with colleagues and stakeholders at all levels to provide financial insight that supports decision-making and value-for-money outcomes.
