## About

```text
I'm leading Corporate Services and Fixed Asset Teams at SoluGrowth, strengthening internal controls, SLA reporting, and process automation across financial operations.

Previously, I managed finance at Imizizi, overseeing IFRS accounting, cash management, VAT and PAYE reconciliations, payroll, budgets, annual financial statements, and external audit engagement.

At Zutari, I developed the Cash Card Policy and Process to reduce cash handling and improve compliance. I also managed cash-flow reporting across South Africa, the rest of Africa, and the Middle East, while leading three Finance Clerks.

Across Selective Empowerment, DDS Group, Transtec Africa Global, and Nexia SAB&T, I've delivered budgets, financial statements, tax administration, audit management, treasury controls, and team leadership. I helped Selective Empowerment achieve its first clean audit since incorporation and am completing CIMA Strategic Level toward CGMA qualification.
