What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role where I can apply reconciliations, FP&A and treasury expertise, drive automation and controls, collaborate cross-functionally, and contribute to continuous improvement and strategic decision-making.

I am a results-driven, part-qualified CIMA/ACCA finance professional with multi-year experience across reconciliations, FP&A, treasury, and financial control. I deliver audit-ready schedules, high-volume third-party payments, and accurate pension reporting against statutory standards.

At West Northamptonshire Council I perform end-to-end reconciliations, prepare monthly working papers, conduct variance analysis, and lead automation and system-improvement initiatives to accelerate reporting and strengthen controls.

Previously I managed cash and bank reconciliations across 95+ branches, delivered cash forecasts and gross-profit analysis, and presented dashboards and financial reports to senior management. I have experience setting up GL and tax codes, managing supplier payments, and resolving chargebacks and discrepancies.

My background includes multinational operations at MetLife and early finance internships in India. I am Lean Six Sigma trained, focused on compliance (IFRS & GAAP), continuous improvement, and effective stakeholder collaboration to support strategic decision-making.
