What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values compliance and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an experienced and detail-oriented Financial Accountant with over 23 years of expertise in managing corporate financials, statutory reporting, and treasury operations. My career has been marked by a proven track record of preparing complex management accounts, VAT returns, and handling intercompany transactions across multiple currencies. I am recognized for my analytical precision and problem-solving abilities, which allow me to communicate financial data clearly to senior stakeholders.

In my most recent role as Deputy Financial Accountant at Global Witness, I have successfully managed the UK-based corporate pension scheme, delivered monthly management accounts with variance analysis, and ensured compliance with HMRC regulations. My experience includes collaborating with auditors and tax advisors, enhancing internal controls, and leading accounts payable operations. I am committed to continuous improvement and have implemented necessary upgrades to financial systems to enhance efficiency.
