At the United Nations World Food Programme, I support corporate finance and resource management, review statutory reports, and help ensure timely, accurate reporting. I support payroll disbursement of approximately USD 1.5B annually for over 20,000 staff, and contributed to implementing QUANTUM payroll automation for over 15,000 local field staff worldwide.

At Goodyear Tyre and Rubber Company, I introduced a credit check process and developed a cash flow management system that improved liquidity management by 20%. I also coordinated annual audits with zero repeat findings.

At Humming Healthcare Limited, I implemented forecasting enhancements that achieved 95% accuracy. At K-Rep Development Agency, I led implementation of an electronic funds transfer system that achieved 30% cost savings and reduced loan-disbursement processing from two weeks to five days.

Earlier, as a Senior Auditor at Deloitte, I led financial audits across several sectors and reviewed financial statements for compliance with accounting standards and regulations. I hold an MBA, FCCA, and CPA-K, and bring experience in financial planning, reporting, controls, audit, and payroll systems.
