@kingsfordappiah
Experienced accountant and finance leader skilled in treasury, compliance, and financial controls.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced accountant and finance leader with a strong track record in treasury management, financial reporting, and compliance across Ghana and regional assignments. I blend technical accounting expertise with practical experience implementing finance and operational systems.
At SBINC Solutions Limited I served as Finance & Administrative Manager and Chief of Staff, leading treasury, financial statement preparation, external audit coordination, and cross-functional project facilitation. I successfully managed stakeholder relationships and drove systems implementation and compliance efforts.
In my role at British American Tobacco Ghana I focused on corporate finance, treasury and compliance for Ghana and Burkina Faso, delivering accurate cash forecasts, timely foreign payments, bank reconciliations, KPI monitoring, and audit action closure. Earlier, at Aston Petroleum Limited I managed monthly closings, tax filings, external audits, ledger integrity and contributed to substantial growth and control improvements.
I hold a BSc in Administration (Accounting) from the University of Ghana, Legon, and professional affiliations including ICAG (Part 3), The Chief of Staff Association, and Certified Scrum Master status. I am detail-oriented, self-motivated, and enjoy working in dynamic team environments to strengthen financial controls and drive performance.
