What I'm looking for

I seek a role in audit, risk or compliance within a financial institution where I can strengthen controls, improve processes, and lead implementation of best practices.

I am an audit and finance professional with practical experience in banking and insurance operations, internal control, and risk management. I hold a Master of Audit and Finance and a Bachelor of Accounting and Finance.

I have worked in roles across SanlamAllianz Madagascar and AccèsBanque Madagascar, gaining hands-on experience in compliance, internal auditing, debt recovery, and public accounting internships. I am proficient with accounting software such as SAGE Compta and Milliards and familiar with IFRS standards.

My strengths include risk analysis, procedure implementation, reporting, and use of risk management tools like CURA and BRIDGER. I have led projects, managed teams and tasks, and produced audit and inventory reports.

I bring a driver-of-change mindset, strong analytical and organizational skills, and multilingual communication ability (Malagasy native, French and English advanced) to roles focused on improving financial controls and operational efficiency.
