What I'm looking for

I seek a hybrid or remote finance/accounting role in a growth-focused organisation where I can apply plant and corporate accounting expertise, improve processes, and support cost control.

I am a detail-oriented accounting professional with over 10 years' experience managing accounts payable, receivable, credit control, and plant accounting across fast-paced and remote-enabled corporate environments.

I improved month-end closing accuracy by reconciling over 1,200 journal entries, reallocating costs to correct cost centres and reducing reporting discrepancies by 18%, and I prepared monthly financial performance reports for multiple departments to support cost-control decisions.

I strengthened supplier relationships by resolving invoicing and payment issues, oversaw plant inventory and fixed assets (KES 80 million), and implemented system-based approvals and automated reversals to reduce manual posting errors.

I am skilled in SAP, QuickBooks, Sage Pastel, Microsoft Dynamics, Excel and cloud-based accounting tools, and I collaborate virtually across regional plants and head office to align reporting standards and deliver timely management reporting.
