I lead complex audits, consolidations, and IFRS reporting for major listed companies.
What I'm looking for
I'm a Chartered Accountant CA(Z) leading complex audit engagements and financial reporting for major listed companies at Ernst & Young. I directed the audit of the largest company on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange and managed a market-cap portfolio exceeding a billion dollars.
I've supervised multidisciplinary audit teams, delivered compliant engagements on time, and prepared and reviewed consolidated group cash flow statements for portfolios valued up to $50M. My work spans IFRS implementation, group consolidations, deferred tax, statutory remittances, budget analysis, and internal-control assessments.
Before EY, I strengthened controls across regulated banking, exchange control, digital channels, credit, lending, and microfinance operations at African Century Limited. At Environmental Africa, I managed donor funds, compliance requirements, financial KPIs, and project funding analysis.
I'm a proactive thinker and progressive learner pursuing an MBA while continuing to develop people through technical training, collaboration, and practical audit leadership.
