Message

At DIAGEO CAMEROON LTD and GUINNESS CAMEROON S.A, I implemented commercial, operations, and strategic finance across Diageo partner markets in West and Central Africa. I led the Trade-Edge deployment for depletions and stock-in-trade reporting, improving visibility across partner markets.

I also standardised Power BI reporting to address reporting gaps and developed Annual Operating Plans and Risk & Opportunity forecasts with business units. Earlier, at Pacific Plastics Company Ltd, I established the company’s first end-to-end accounting system.
