What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead internal audits and procurement improvements—strengthening compliance, reducing risks, and delivering cost-effective governance with strong cross-functional collaboration.

I am a results-driven internal auditor and procurement professional with over 10 years of experience spanning procurement, logistics, and financial management. I design and implement audit plans to ensure compliance with statutory regulations and organizational policies, focusing on high-risk areas that drive practical improvements.

I strengthen procurement transparency by developing strategies that minimize discrepancies and improve supplier performance. Through risk assessments, I recommend control mechanisms that reduce operational inefficiencies and support stronger financial governance.

Across roles including claims and billing, finance and administration, grants & contract support, and audit internships, I align organizational goals with compliance and performance standards. I bring hands-on capability in budgeting and financial planning, reconciliation, data analysis and reporting, and team leadership to help organizations optimize resource utilization.
