What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and allows for growth in financial management and reporting.

As a qualified Chartered Accountant with over 11 years of experience, I specialize in Group Reporting, Statutory Reporting, Financial Planning and Analysis, and Commercial Due Diligence. My proactive approach to digital automation has significantly increased efficiency in financial reporting, driving substantial improvements in my previous roles.

Throughout my career, I have developed and managed operating plans, conducted commercial due diligence, and identified revenue leakage in processes. I thrive in challenging environments, leveraging my skills in financial analysis and cross-team collaboration to deliver results. I have a proven track record of leading teams and managing complex accounting processes, ensuring compliance with international financial reporting standards.
