What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance leadership role where I can own statutory compliance, improve invoicing and receivables, accelerate audits and reporting, and lead teams toward accounting and operational excellence.

I’m a Certified Public Accountant with CPA qualifications and experience across labour outsourcing, debt collection, medical institutions, and financial services. I bring a disciplined, compliance-first approach while consistently improving how finance teams report, collect, and support business performance.

In my most recent role as Global Head of Finance at Jeff Hamilton (K) Ltd, I ensured proper financial management for the group across Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda. I fast-tracked the annual audit, maintained a central asset register, generated monthly management reports, and ensured statutory and tax compliance—while also overseeing payroll processing and staff salary payments.

Previously, as Head of Credit Control and Credit Control Manager, I owned accurate invoicing, returns filing, and accounts receivables management. I strengthened liquidity through disciplined follow-up, timely bank reconciliations, and proactive cash flow updates; I also delivered measurable results such as keeping debtors outstanding at most 10% of total and reducing old debtors by 80%.

I’m energized by roles where I can challenge the status quo constructively and lead improvements in finance operations—whether through receivables training, stronger credit terms, or better accounting policy execution. I’m known for driving accountability, achieving targets, and delivering reliable financial information for confident decision-making.
