What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in a dynamic organization that values financial integrity and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a results-driven accountant with over 8 years of experience in accounting and 2 years in internal audit. My career has been dedicated to enhancing financial performance and improving internal controls. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in data analysis, financial reporting, and compliance to drive organizational success.

Currently, I serve as a Group Financial Accountant at Hydrobox Kenya Ltd, where I manage accounts receivable, oversee cash flow, and ensure accurate financial reporting. My previous roles have equipped me with a strong foundation in accounts payable management and internal auditing, allowing me to identify risks and implement effective controls. I am committed to continuous improvement and maintaining high standards of accuracy and compliance in all financial processes.
