What I'm looking for
I am a highly skilled and results-oriented accounting professional with over 10 years of experience in financial operations, statutory compliance, and accounting systems management. My proficiency in GAAP standards and tools such as QuickBooks Online, Xero, and Oracle has enabled me to maintain accuracy and confidentiality in all my financial dealings. I thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments and am committed to delivering high-quality financial and project management results.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led monthly closings, prepared P&L statements, and ensured compliance with Kenyan tax regulations. My experience as a Senior Accountant at Namiri Technology Limited allowed me to spearhead project management updates and generate financial reports that supported executive decision-making. I have a proven track record of developing annual business plans, conducting internal audits, and streamlining financial processes to enhance efficiency and accuracy.
