What I'm looking for

I seek a fully remote finance/accounts role in a growth-focused company where I can lead financial reporting, debt recovery, payroll, process improvements, and mentor distributed teams.

I am a results-driven finance and accounting specialist with over 10 years’ experience in financial reporting, debt management and regulatory compliance across fast-paced, high-volume environments.

I have managed up to KES 25M in monthly transactions, optimised cash flow through strategic debt recovery and supported cross-functional teams across Kenya. I streamlined payroll processing for 100+ employees and improved compliance audit scores by 30%.

I am proficient with QuickBooks, Sage Accounting, Microsoft Excel and cloud collaboration tools, and I have reconciled bank statements remotely with 98% accuracy. I transitioned paper-based systems to cloud-based financial tracking and reduced month-end close time by 40%.

I am looking to transition these financial leadership skills into a fully remote finance or accounts role in a growth-focused organisation where I can drive cashflow optimisation, strengthen controls and support remote team performance.
