What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers growth opportunities in finance, with a focus on tax compliance and financial analysis.

I am a dedicated finance professional with extensive experience in tax compliance, credit evaluation, and financial analysis. Currently, I serve as an Associate in Finance & Tax at CTL Strategies LLP in the Maldives, where I manage general ledger entries, payroll processing, and statutory tax compliance. My commitment to accuracy and efficiency has resulted in a 98% adherence rate to tax deadlines and significant improvements in budget efficiency.

Previously, I worked as a Senior Associate in Commercial Lending at Acuity Knowledge Partners, where I supported a leading European wholesale bank by managing a portfolio of over 1,200 corporate clients. My analytical skills enabled me to develop financial models and author comprehensive credit review reports, contributing to informed lending decisions. My career began as a Junior Executive in Credit Evaluation, where I assessed the creditworthiness of customers and collaborated with recovery teams to enhance delinquency resolution rates.
