What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own payroll and benefits operations end-to-end, protect salary data integrity, and support finance/HR teams with compliant, detail-driven execution.

I am a detail-oriented Compensation and Benefits professional with over 4 years of operational experience managing payroll inputs, ensuring data integrity, and maintaining financial compliance.

I work cross-functionally with HR and finance leadership to ensure compensation structures are consistently applied, and I keep execution reliable through high organizational discipline and accuracy.

In my recent role as an Accounting and Finance Professional, I managed day-to-end payroll processing inputs, monitored expense tracking and benefits administration data, and maintained accurate financial records through banking reconciliations and journal entries.

Previously, I led daily compensation operations (payroll allocations and cash tracking) and prepared structured financial and payroll documents using Peachtree accounting software. I also bring strong administrative support experience and complement my background with a BA in Accounting and Finance and a Virtual Assistant Certification from ALX Africa.
