What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that promotes continuous learning and enhances my professional skills while contributing to financial accuracy and business performance.

I am a detail-oriented and results-driven Chartered Accountant with nearly two years of experience in financial accounting and reporting. My career has been shaped by my work with a leading UK-based media company and a Fortune 500 global food and beverage conglomerate, where I honed my skills in Ind AS and IFRS. My analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities have been recognized, and I thrive in dynamic, deadline-driven environments.

At IBM India Pvt. Ltd, I supported clients in preparing and reporting financial statements while managing day-to-day accounting operations. I have a proven track record of compiling and analyzing financial data to produce accurate reports for stakeholders. My experience also includes conducting internal audits and collaborating with cross-functional teams to implement improvements based on audit findings. I am currently seeking a role that fosters continuous learning and contributes to financial accuracy and business performance improvement.
