JAmes Mwangi

I’m a dedicated internal auditor and data analyst with 3 years of experience in financial auditing and control. I focus on executing audits, identifying control weaknesses, and recommending corrective actions that strengthen risk management.

In my current role, I contribute to developing and executing the department audit strategy, conduct reviews and special investigations, and continuously monitor transactions in real time. I prepare evidence-supported reports and share audit results monthly, using data analytics software (Arbutus) for data collection, cleaning, and analysis.

I also partner closely with stakeholders to communicate complex findings clearly and drive timely outcomes—such as reviewing payroll each month, resolving discrepancies with HR, and successfully saving payroll costs by 30%. I’m committed to compliance reviews and ongoing audit research that improves controls and reduces exposure.

Previously, as a Data Consultant, I defined and implemented KPIs using clustering, regression, and predictive modeling—driving a 20% cost reduction and a 42% revenue increase, plus a 20% decrease in customer churn and a 37% sales revenue boost. Earlier as a Cost Controller and Data Analyst, I improved budgeting, forecasting, and pricing strategy, including reducing food costs from 33% to 31% and beverage costs from 27% to 25% while lowering bar variances by 3%.
