What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance/accounting role where I can own accurate reporting, strengthen credit control and cash flow, and drive process improvements—while supporting audits, handling taxes end-to-end, and growing professionally in a results-focused team.

I’m a CPA accountant with progressive finance and accounting experience, specializing in Credit Control, Management Accounting, and Accounts Payable. I prepare monthly, quarterly, and annual financial and management reports, build and maintain budgets, and support decision-making with financial data analysis and reconciliations.

In my current role as an Accountant, I manage accounts payable and accounts receivable end-to-end—processing invoices, reconciling aging schedules, ensuring on-time payments and collections, and resolving discrepancies. I also handle bank reconciliations, general ledger reconciliations, payroll processing, and statutory tax compliance (VAT, Income tax, SHIF, NSSF, PAYE, WHT), while assisting internal and external audits with the required documentation. Previously, I delivered variance analysis and actionable insights as a Management Accountant/Credit Controller, improved financial systems and reporting tools, trained junior staff, and supported audits; I’m now focused on continuous process improvement and professional growth as I complete my BCom in Finance.
