What I'm looking for

I'm open to global and GCC remote opportunities.

At Ufaq Consultants, I deliver financial advisory services to SMEs across Pakistan and the GCC, including internal audit, accounting, financial reporting, and risk assessment. I manage client engagements and advise business owners on internal controls, SOX compliance, and financial projections.

At Kamal Mills, I designed and implemented the Oracle R12 Fixed Asset Management Module, accelerating monthly asset closing cycles by 40%. I also prepared financial statements and served as the point of contact for statutory auditors.

At Fazal Cloth Mills Limited, I prepared subsidiary financial statements and drafted the Group Consolidated Cash Flow Statement under IFRS. During my CA articleship there, I identified PKR 15 Million in uncollected receivables through reconciliation audits, driving 100% recovery.
