What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven auditor with over three years of experience across manufacturing, merchandising, shipping/marine, energy, real estate, and construction sectors. I focus on assurance engagements, financial reporting, and delivering clear, actionable audit findings.
At PricewaterhouseCoopers Philippines I led preparation of audit schedules, working papers, and engagement deliverables while performing detailed testing of cash, PPE, liabilities, and equity accounts. I review client-prepared financial statements for compliance with IFRS, PFRS, and GAAP and prepare tax provisions and adjusting entries.
I previously performed external audits at Tita Caluya Accounting and Consulting Firm, designing tailored audit programs, preparing consolidated financial statements and tax returns, and communicating recommendations that improved clients' reporting and internal controls. I have also supported finance operations at TESDA Provincial Office VIII, reinforcing my accuracy and control-focused approach.
I bring strong Microsoft Office and Google Workspace skills, effective time management, leadership in team coordination, and fluency in English and Filipino. I am collaborative, technically curious, and eager to contribute my assurance expertise to organizations seeking reliable financial reporting and strengthened controls.
