AfghanistanWhat I'm looking for
I’m a motivated MBA candidate and finance professional with 5+ years of experience in Accounting, Financial Reporting, and AFMIS. I’m driven by financial integrity and operational transparency, and I enjoy turning accurate numbers into clear decisions.
As an Accounting Manager at the Ministry of Finance (Wardak, Afghanistan), I lead the accounting team, manage annual budgeting, and prepare accurate monthly financial reports to support strategic decision-making. I’m hands-on with the processes that keep reporting reliable and on time.
Previously, I worked as an Accounting Officer at the Ministry of Finance, where I recorded daily financial transactions, reconciled bank statements, and processed invoices/payments with high accuracy. I also served as Finance and Administration Manager at Muslim Mansoor Construction O&M Company, managing annual budgets and office operations while ensuring compliance.
Alongside my finance work, I’m building strength in cybersecurity and ethical hacking. I also work as a Trade Finance Executive (commission-based), focusing on potential client onboarding and maintaining professional relationships in international markets, which keeps my work outward-facing and market-aware.
