Finance Manager at TenX Nutrition Limited who rolled out Zoho ERP and raised sales-order capture from 48% to 99.8%.

At TenX Nutrition Limited, I led the end-to-end setup of Zoho ERP after the move to a new factory, extending the system from finance to field sales and production. I designed a daily three-way match across sales orders, production and cash collected, helping raise sales-order capture from 48% to 99.8% within three months.

At Mesora Group Limited, I designed a live NetSuite credit-control dashboard that helped reduce days sales outstanding from 71 to 31 days in six months. Earlier, at New Brooke Branding, I created a petty cash requisition process using Microsoft Excel and the organizational M-Pesa portal that reduced erroneous or double payments by 100%.
