What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can train and support teams in corporate governance, VAT, treasury, and risk—modernizing payment and settlement operations while improving compliance and debt sustainability in a dynamic environment.

I’m a dynamic training facilitator with over three years of experience in corporate governance, risk management, and supply chain management. I’ve strengthened compliance and operational efficiency by navigating governance frameworks, optimizing Value Added Tax processes, and evaluating risk management strategies.

I deliver measurable outcomes across finance operations: I streamlined treasury management to support liquidity and financial stability, engineered automated international clearing house payments to expedite settlements, and assessed debt sustainability frameworks to maintain financial integrity. I also focus on advancing payment and settlement systems to modernise operations.

Before training, I built strong foundations through education and hands-on financial work—teaching Advanced Level Economics and Business Studies, leading the Commercials department, and executing data capturing, reconciliations, cashiering, and debt collection. My approach is practical, performance-focused, and designed to help teams succeed in dynamic environments.
