What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance leadership role where I can drive budgeting, forecasting, strong internal controls, and audit-ready reporting—improving cash flow and cost efficiency while ensuring full tax and statutory compliance.

I’m a results-oriented finance manager with a proven track record in accounting, financial management, and administration. I direct finance operations, financial reporting and planning, budgeting, and forecasting.

I’m known for integrity and operational excellence—cutting operational costs by 20% through enhanced budgeting and procurement controls, improving cash flow forecasting and working capital efficiency, and strengthening internal controls for 6 consecutive clean external audits with zero compliance penalties. I’ve also managed payroll and finance operations supporting 72 employees, maintaining 100% statutory and tax compliance.
