What I'm looking for

I want to grow in audit, due diligence, and valuation work—especially within banking and regulated financial environments—where I can combine risk assessment with strong financial modeling and reporting to drive compliant, high-impact decisions.

I’m a semi-qualified Chartered Accountant with 4+ years of experience across internal and statutory audits, business valuation, due diligence, and financial analysis. I support management decisions through financial reporting, variance analysis, and performance insights.

In my audit roles, I led and executed statutory audits, internal audits, due diligence, and business valuation assignments for private clients and corporate entities. I’ve also worked on banking and financial sector audits, including loan portfolio verification, interest income recognition, and regulatory compliance checks.

My approach blends risk assessment with financial modeling and strong internal controls to deliver clear, decision-ready outputs. I’m currently in a finance leadership role focused on product costing, pricing analysis, and margin optimization, while continuously strengthening my toolkit with XERO, payroll processing, and ongoing learning in Python.
