Ghulam Sarwar

I’m a Senior Finance & Accounting Professional with 23+ years of progressive experience across accounting, financial operations, bookkeeping, compliance, budgeting, and administrative leadership. I’ve built a strong track record in full-cycle accounting and internal controls, including end-to-end accounts payable/receivable, reconciliations, and financial reporting.

Currently, I provide remote accounting support to a U.S.-based healthcare organization, managing multi-entity accounting processes in QuickBooks Online and helping drive accurate financial decision-making. I handle month-end close support, balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow reports while maintaining reliable digital financial records and documentation.

Previously, as Manager Finance & Administration at Hazara Development & Advocacy Foundation (HADAF), I led budgeting, donor financial reporting, and audit preparation, while managing payroll, cash flow planning, and internal financial policies across multiple offices. Earlier, at Sungi Development Foundation, I served as Senior Finance Officer and later managed regional microfinance operations, including portfolio management for 11,000+ clients and supervision of 70+ staff.

I’m recognized for analytical strength, process optimization, and accuracy—particularly when working independently in remote and cross-functional environments. My work culture is focused on financial discipline, compliance readiness, and continuous improvement in controls and reporting to support stakeholders with confidence.
