Qualified Chartered Accountant (South Africa) with over six years' external audit experience, specializing in technology, media and entertainment. Additional industry exposure includes auditing clients operating in the manufacturing, consumer business and real estate sectors. I possess specific experience auditing clients within the financial services sector, including trusts with complex financial instruments and an insurance broker, providing me with valuable exposure to the unique reporting and regulatory considerations associated with financial services entities. In addition to my extensive local experience, I have gained valuable international exposure through auditing companies headquartered in Mauritius, Sweden, and Germany, demonstrating the ability to work effectively across different jurisdictions, understanding diverse business environments, and consistently delivering high-quality work within strict deadlines. Effectively leading multidisciplinary teams and providing an end-to-end audit process that ensures the completion and finalisation of audits. I possess the ability to quickly learn and adapt to firm-specific audit tools and data analysis software, enabling efficient execution of audit procedures and insightful analysis of financial and non-financial data.
