What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an accounting or financial operations role where I can strengthen AP/AR processes, reconciliations, reporting, tax compliance, and cash flow while contributing immediately in Kuwait or remotely.

I deliver remote accounting and finance operations for Genteel Fashion and Grooming Limited while building hands-on Kuwait-based operational experience. I prepare financial reports, manage tax compliance, reconcile bank, supplier, and customer accounts, and support budgeting and forecasting.

At Genteel Fashion and Grooming Limited, I reduced outstanding receivables by 65%, improved financial controls by 70% through internal audits, and implemented QuickBooks and ERP/POS systems to strengthen accounting workflows and data integrity.

Previously, at Karia Supermarkets Limited, I improved accounts payable efficiency by 80% for 150+ suppliers, reduced invoice-processing turnaround time by 80%, and resolved a full year of VAT inconsistencies with the Kenya Revenue Authority. My earlier AR work at Ashut Engineers Limited included clearing 80% of aging debt through daily client follow-up and supporting accurate month-end close.

I also bring high-volume invoicing, customer service, payroll, POS, and hospitality operations experience, with a practical focus on accurate records, disciplined reconciliation, and smooth day-to-day operations.
