At Rouge Creations AE, I owned GL entries, accruals, prepayments and balance sheet reconciliations, closing month-end in 2 working days. I also supported budgeting and forecasting and prepared P&L and balance sheet reporting for management.

At Edenred UAE, I partnered with the technology team to automate 70% of manual payment recording and salary processing, saving 2 hours daily and cutting errors by 90%. Across my finance work, I’ve handled multi-entity reconciliations, financial controls and audit support, and I’ve applied AI-based automation to client finance workflows through the Financial Service Integration for RAEN project.
