What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role in a dynamic finance team where I can leverage my accounting expertise and contribute to financial accuracy and efficiency.

I am an experienced and detail-oriented accounting professional with over 7 years of expertise in financial operations and general ledger accounting, including 4 years specifically in accounts payable. My proficiency in invoice processing, vendor account reconciliation, and payment scheduling has enabled me to ensure timely payments and maintain accurate financial records. I hold a Master’s in Commerce (M.Com), a Post Graduate Diploma in Foreign Trade (PGDFT), and I am a certified SOCPA member.

Currently, I work as an Accounts Payable and General Accountant at Raco Limited Company in Jeddah, where I manage accounts payable for over 200 vendors, conduct daily bank reconciliations, and assist with month-end closing procedures. My experience with Odoo ERP has allowed me to streamline accounting workflows and maintain compliance with financial regulations. I am committed to contributing to a finance team that values accuracy, efficiency, and continuous improvement.
