What I'm looking for

I am looking for a senior accounting role where I can lead team operations, improve controls, manage cross-border accounts, support audits, and drive accurate financial close processes.

I am a senior accountant with a Master's in International Accounting and Financial Management and extensive experience managing payables, reconciliations, audits, bank payments and cross-border tax considerations across MENA. I have led recruitment, supervised and trained accounting teams, coordinated with auditors, and implemented month-end close processes to ensure accurate financial reporting.

I combine strong technical proficiency in accounting systems (Spade, Omega, Office suite) with attention to detail, problem solving and communication skills. My work spans multinational clients and fiscal jurisdictions, and I bring a practical, team-oriented approach to resolving legacy account issues and improving payment controls.
