What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles where I can lead finance transformation, SAP FICO implementations, audits or training, in organizations valuing compliance, mentoring and measurable process improvement.

I am a Fellow Member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India with 25+ years in finance, accounts, audit and SAP FICO implementations. I combine hands-on accounting, statutory and internal audit experience with SAP FICO consultancy, corporate training and project management across global clients.

My career highlights include leading large support and implementation teams (up to 50 consultants), delivering SAP and audit engagements for multinational organisations, and credentials as a DISA-qualified systems auditor, Certified Fraud Examiner, Registered Valuer and QuickBooks Pro Advisor. I mentor and train professionals and contribute practical, compliance-focused solutions that improve controls and finance operations.
