What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead audit engagements end-to-end—using IFRS, risk assessment, and strong internal controls—while coaching teams and delivering clear, decision-ready financial reporting that improves operational efficiency.

I’m a results-driven Chartered Accountant with over 8 years of accounting and audit experience, leading financial reporting, reviews, and audits across diverse industries. I focus on strong internal controls, clear risk assessment, and regulatory reporting—so engagements run efficiently and findings translate into real improvements.

In my recent roles, I’ve managed multiple audit projects, planned engagements using risk-based procedures, reviewed financial statements and key disclosures, and led audit teams by coaching seniors and semi seniors. I’ve also spearheaded audit assignments with strict professional standards, conducted revenue recognition and going concern assessments, tested internal controls, and prepared management letters on deficiencies for those charged with governance.
