What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance role where I can coordinate accurate reporting, ensure donor compliance (IFRS/IPSAS/GAAP), and manage budgets, cash/receivables, and confidentiality—while supporting project teams with strong attention to detail and teamwork.

I am a Finance Coordinator with extensive experience in accounting and finance roles within donor-funded projects at the Bureau of Finance, including Food security project (RCFSP). I also served as a Senior Accountant and Finance officer, handling financial activities with a strong commitment to integrity, honesty, and strict professional confidentiality.

I bring advanced reporting capability using GAAP, IPSAS, and IFRS, along with strong skills in budget and cash control and property valuation. I work comfortably with ERP systems and online accounting platforms such as Peachtree accounting software, SAP, IBEX, IFMIS, and ODOO, and I’m known for being an approachable, collaborative team player who can meet deadlines under pressure.
