Senior Accounting & Finance professional specializing in IFRS reporting, financial operations, audit coordination, and ERP-driven process improvement.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Accounting and Finance Professional with 10+ years of international experience across Colombia and Australia. I specialize in IFRS reporting, financial operations, audit coordination, reconciliations, and process improvement within multinational environments—helping teams deliver accurate, compliant reporting in fast-paced settings.
In my recent role as an Accounting Associate, I managed AP/AR transactions, reconciliations, and intercompany entries for a global education provider. I supported month-end and year-end closing, processed supplier payments, and collaborated across time zones to improve reporting accuracy and operational efficiency.
Previously, I strengthened audit and control work through Intermediate Auditor roles and leadership positions at KPMG and Pembroke Projects. I’ve executed listed entity audits, evaluated internal controls and SOX/COSO compliance, reconstructed and reconciled accounting records for 35 entities, owned GST/BAS/IAS compliance, and partnered to re-engineer workflows with proper segregation of duties while mentoring junior teams.
