Accounting professional and Finance Manager with 19+ years in IFRS/GAAP close, reconciliation, SAP, and tax compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m an accounting professional and Finance Manager with 19+ years managing the full accounting cycle—from general ledger and sub-ledgers (AP/AR) to bank and balance sheet reconciliations—plus statutory and tax compliance for multinational organizations. I support month-end and year-end close under IFRS and GAAP, keeping reporting accurate, controlled, and audit-ready.
I’m CMA-certified and SAP-proficient, and I’m known for being reliable and deadline-driven, even when working with minimal supervision across time zones. I bring a practical, reconciliation-first approach to transaction posting, review, and clear documentation so close processes run smoothly.
In my Finance Manager role, I prepared monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and led budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning to support strategic decision-making. I also served as a cost controller, performing variance, trend, and performance analysis, ensured compliance with tax regulations, supported tax filings, coordinated audit preparation with external auditors, and managed cash flow through reconciliation of financial records.
Earlier, as a Chief Accountant and later as a Senior Auditor, I strengthened control quality and reduced financial discrepancies by 15% by improving reconciliation processes. I’ve also contributed to successful external audits with zero non-compliance findings.
