What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities that allow me to apply my skills and grow professionally.

I am a time qualified and exam qualified prospective Chartered Accountant, currently completing my registration with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Zimbabwe. With over three years of experience in external audit and financial reporting, I have honed my skills at prestigious firms such as KPMG Zimbabwe, Grant Thornton, and Clive & Associates. My journey has been marked by a commitment to improving audit quality through innovation and collaboration.

In my role as a Technical Audit Supervisor at KPMG South Africa, I have been instrumental in assisting engagement teams across Southern Africa with complex audit methodology and reporting matters. My leadership capabilities were further demonstrated as I managed a listed banking client engagement in Zimbabwe, where I received a compliant rating in my first year as an engagement manager. I am passionate about leveraging my diverse skill set to contribute to a dynamic team while continuing to grow my technical and professional experience.
