What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an Accounting Manager role where I can run end-to-end accounting, lead IFRS month-end close, strengthen internal controls, and partner with auditors—while improving processes using ERP systems and data-driven variance reporting.

I’m an Accounting Manager with 15+ years of experience in retail, fashion, IT, and multinational organizations. I lead end-to-end accounting operations, own monthly/annual financial reporting, and ensure month-end and year-end closing aligns with IFRS and internal timelines.

My background is built on strong fundamentals and reliable execution: I oversee general ledger activities, journal entries, accruals, and prepaid accounts, while monitoring AR/AP balances, cash flow, and working capital efficiency. I provide financial analysis and variance reports to support management decisions, and I enhance accounting processes and internal controls.

Across roles as Accounting Supervisor and Accounting Executive, I prepared and reviewed BS and P&L, maintained general ledger integrity, reconciled prepaid/accrual/balance sheet accounts, and supported timely tax filings with reconciled tax declarations. I’ve also coordinated external audits with schedules, reconciliations, and documentation, using ERP systems such as Oracle, JD Edwards, and Microsoft Dynamics.
