What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic organization that values creativity and problem-solving in finance.

I am an accounting, finance, and audit practitioner with four years of experience, specializing in accounts payable, receivable, and audit processes. My journey has equipped me with the skills to manage financial records meticulously, ensuring compliance with both local and international standards.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to various organizations by enhancing their financial efficiency and productivity. My role at JK Cement involved maintaining fixed asset registers, filing VAT returns, and performing bank reconciliations. I thrive in dynamic environments, where I can apply my problem-solving skills and attention to detail to drive results.
