What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and impactful financial management.

I am a Certified Accountant with over 8 years of diverse experience in the finance sector, specializing in health, banking, and education industries. My career has been marked by significant achievements, including a 25% reduction in financial reporting errors and the recovery of 85% of non-performing loans. I excel in strategic budgeting, compliance enforcement, and optimizing financial systems to achieve measurable improvements in cost efficiency and loan recovery.

In my current role as an Accountant at Little Sprout School, I designed and implemented financial reporting systems that improved transparency and accuracy, leading to substantial operational cost savings. Previously, as a Finance Officer and Loan Recovery Manager at Lavouge Microfinance Bank, I successfully managed a portfolio of over 200 clients, improving loan approval processing times and reducing loan default rates. My commitment to excellence and continuous improvement drives my professional ethos.
