What I'm looking for

I am seeking a finance role where I can lead reporting, controls, and tax compliance, mentor teams, and drive process improvements in a collaborative organization.

I am an accomplished finance professional with over 5 years of experience in strategic leadership, financial management, auditing and assurance. I have a proven track record in financial analysis, budgeting, forecasting, compliance and risk management, having led audits, prepared management reports and implemented controls that improved cash flow and operational stability.

I have hands-on experience across multi-branch operations, payroll and statutory payments, VAT and tax filings, and system implementations (Sage, SAP, QuickBooks, Tally, MS Office). I enjoy mentoring junior staff, restructuring finance functions, and delivering actionable insights that drive sustainable growth and enhance organizational value.
