What I'm looking for

I seek a full-time auditing role that fosters professional growth and collaboration.

I am a highly motivated and results-driven auditor with a proven track record of delivering exceptional performance in the finance and property industry. Currently, I work at Ernst & Young as a Staff Assistant, where I assist multiple engagement teams on audits of multinational clients, ensuring efficient management of engagements and adherence to timelines. My experience includes preparing IFRS compliance checklists and reviewing internal controls, which has equipped me with a strong understanding of financial regulations and standards.

My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Administration from the University of Ghana, where I specialized in Accounting. I have also completed a one-year compulsory national service, contributing to the growth of the Revenue and Cash Management Directorate. My commitment to professional development is evident through my achievements as an affiliate of the Association of Certified Chartered Accountants (ACCA), where I was recognized as the Best Affiliate in 2021. I am eager to leverage my skills and experience to make a significant impact in my next role.
