@georginaokoth
Analytical finance professional skilled in accounting, reporting, and client relationship management.
What I'm looking for
I am an analytical, detail-oriented finance professional with hands-on experience in accounting, reporting, and financial operations. I combine technical accounting skills with strong client relationship and communication abilities.
During internships at Shujaaz Inc. and PZ Cussons I managed petty cash, completed reconciliations in QuickBooks, supported month-end reporting, and prepared internal cost reports and forecasts. I gained exposure to Navision, SharePoint, Excel and operational processes across departments.
In sales and customer-facing roles I developed proposals, managed CRM pipelines, and led client acquisition and brand-promotion efforts that delivered measurable results, including a 40% success rate in RFP responses and maintaining 80+ active leads monthly.
I am multilingual (English, French, Kiswahili), committed to teamwork, and focused on delivering high-quality outcomes under deadlines. I seek roles where I can apply finance, accounting and business development skills to support strategic decision-making and growth.
