What I'm looking for

I seek a stable company role in finance or accounting where I can apply ERP and reporting skills, grow professionally, and contribute to strong controls and accurate financial reporting.

I am a B.Sc. Accounting (Hons) graduate from USJ with professional accounting qualifications and practical experience across corporate finance, audit and education. I combine academic grounding with hands-on use of ERP systems and accounting software.

I have held roles including Senior Finance Officer and Internal Audit Assistant at Omega Line Ltd and People’s Insurance PLC, where I supported financial and management accounting, internal controls and reporting. I have practical experience with SAP, Sage 50 and Advanced Excel.

Earlier I worked as an audit associate and finance intern, gaining exposure to audit procedures, ERP implementations and financial systems at Ernst & Young and SLTDA. I also teach advanced-level accounting and professional accounting subjects including AAT and CA business level courses.

I am results-oriented, comfortable with data reporting and visualization (Power BI), and committed to continuous professional development through CMA(CMA Sri Lanka) and CA pathways.
