What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in payroll management with opportunities for growth and development.

I am a Payroll Specialist with over eight years of progressive experience in Payroll and Human Resource functions across various industry segments. My journey has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of payroll administration, compliance with statutory requirements, and the ability to manage payroll-related issues effectively.

Throughout my career, I have worked with reputable organizations such as AP Moller Maersk and United Nigeria Airlines, where I have successfully managed payroll systems, ensured timely processing of salaries, and maintained accurate records of statutory deductions. My commitment to integrity and accuracy has been pivotal in my roles, allowing me to contribute significantly to the financial health of the organizations I have served.

I am also an Associate member of the Institute of Chartered Bankers of Nigeria and a student member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria. My educational background, coupled with my technical skills in payroll software and analytical abilities, positions me as a valuable asset in any organization looking to enhance their payroll processes.
