What I'm looking for

I seek a senior finance role focused on accurate reporting, compliance, cost control, and process improvements within a stable, growth-oriented organization.

I am a senior finance professional with 14 years of experience in financial reporting, general ledger management, cost control, budgeting, and compliance. I deliver accurate, timely financial information and ensure adherence to IFRS and internal procedures.

Across roles from accounting to senior reporting, I have recorded and controlled daily entries, reconciled trial balances, and managed accounts receivable and payable processes to improve accuracy and cash flow.

I led payroll operations, tax and VAT submissions, fiscal stamp reporting, and prepared financial statements for regulatory bodies including the Central Bank. I also implemented cost controls such as recipe yields and inventory tracking to improve COGS accuracy.

I complement practical experience with formal training including courses in Financial Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Finance for Managers, and Excel for Business, and I communicate fluently in English with intermediate French.
