Internal Auditor with 5+ years’ experience driving compliance, risk identification, and process improvements.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-oriented Internal Auditor with over five years of experience conducting financial, operational, and compliance audits across public and private sectors. I have led risk-based audits, prepared detailed audit reports, and collaborated with management to implement recommendations that strengthened controls and improved financial accuracy.
I am proficient in IFRS, IAS, Internal Auditing Standards, Caseware, and ERP tools, and I combine strong analytical skills — ratios, reconciliations and trend analysis — with practical experience in external audit, fieldwork, and monitoring implementation of audit recommendations. I seek to apply my audit expertise to support organizational integrity and performance.
