Accounts Specialist at Arabian Bulk Trade Group, overseeing financial reporting and general ledger management after KPMG audit engagements.
What I'm looking for
At Arabian Bulk Trade Group, I oversee financial reporting, general ledger management, compliance, and financial analysis. I prepare financial statements, manage closing activities, and support budgeting and forecasting.
At KPMG Pakistan, I led statutory, component, and group audit engagements as a Senior Audit Associate-I, including audit planning, risk assessment, and internal control reviews. I prepared audit reports and management letters with recommendations.
During my remote secondment with KPMG Lower Gulf, I independently managed external audit engagements for clients in Oman and the UAE. I also carried out substantive and control testing and supported multi-location reporting.
Earlier at KPMG Pakistan, I performed statutory audits and reviews, supported audit planning, and prepared working papers across industries including telecommunications, manufacturing, and real estate. I’m a Chartered Accountant (ACA) candidate with ICAP, and my training includes IFRS, KPMG Clara, and IDEA Data Analytics.
