## About

```text
At Antler, I managed accounting activities across six markets and executed the D+5 month-end close, covering reconciliations, accruals and intercompany accounting.

I presented monthly results to regional Financial Directors, explaining P&L variances and key accounting movements. I also designed and implemented a NetSuite–Xero reconciliation control to identify differences and missing or incorrectly recorded transactions.

At COFCO International and Noble Group, I supported accounting, reporting and controlling in commodity trading. My work included budget-versus-actual analysis, management reporting, reconciliations and improvements to financial controls.
