What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute project accounting, donor compliance, budget monitoring, and financial reporting experience to donor- and grant-funded programmes, particularly faith-led adaptation and advocacy work in Africa.

At United for Rights, I build donor compliance frameworks, reporting calendars and documentation systems for donor-funded projects. I review expenditure against approved budgets and donor rules, prepare budget-versus-actual analysis, and coordinate financial reporting and audit support.

As Treasurer and Finance Consultant for Friends for Human Dignity Community Based Organization, I prepare budgets and financial reports, maintain internal controls, reconcile accounts, and support grant compliance. My work also includes financial analysis, due diligence, dashboards, and regulated banking operations.
