What I'm looking for

I am an accounting professional with over 5 years of experience in the finance sector, having worked with prestigious management consulting firms like McKinsey & Company and Boston Consulting Group. My journey has equipped me with a robust skill set in financial reporting, bookkeeping, and compliance, enabling me to thrive in dynamic environments.

Currently, I serve as an Accountant at Arvato Logistics FZCO in Dubai, where I manage high-level financial reporting and oversee the month-end and year-end close processes. My role involves ensuring compliance with IFRS standards and enhancing internal finance processes. I take pride in my ability to streamline operations and contribute to the overall financial health of the organization.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to continuous improvement and excellence in accounting practices. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to drive financial success and support organizational goals.
