What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a finance role where I can own financial reporting, budgeting, reconciliations, and compliance while supporting audits with accurate documentation. I want structured growth toward CPA and strong, integrity-driven teamwork.

I’m a Finance and Accounting professional with practical experience in financial reporting, revenue monitoring, compliance, audit support, and financial administration across NGO and consulting environments. I’m currently pursuing CPA qualification, and I’m known for strong analytical ability, integrity, and attention to detail.

As a Finance Officer at Mo Dewji Foundation, I manage day-to-day financial operations by processing payments, maintaining financial records, and monitoring expenditures. I prepare financial reports, reconciliations, and supporting schedules for internal review and external audit, while ensuring spending aligns with approved program budgets.

I also build audit readiness through careful controls and documentation. I coordinate with auditors, support annual audits, and ensure compliance with Tanzanian tax regulations and internal financial policies.

Earlier roles strengthened my foundation across the accounting cycle: as an Accounts Intern and Accounts Practical Trainee, I processed invoices, maintained records using Tally, supported bank reconciliations, and assisted with tax compliance and filing of statutory returns. As an Audit Assistant and Office Administrator, I supported audit assignments aligned with ISAs, conducted preliminary risk assessments and compliance checks, and helped keep procurement and administrative records organized.
