I’m an ACCA-qualified Senior Accountant with 7+ years of Big 4 experience at EY and KPMG, owning full-cycle, multi-entity accounting operations. I bring deep hands-on expertise in general ledger management, journal entries, reconciliations, month-end/year-end close, and financial statement preparation under GAAP and IFRS.

I run day-to-day accounting across operating companies and investment structures, managing GL transactions, accruals, prepaids, payroll allocations, fixed asset depreciation, and intercompany activity with audit-readiness in mind. I review bank feeds, reconcile overnight transactions, and maintain reconciliations across 15–30 key balance sheet accounts, resolving variances within close deadlines.

I lead monthly and quarterly close cycles and deliver P&L;, balance sheet, and cash flow statements to leadership. I also support external audits through Prepared-by-Client (PBC) schedules and auditor query responses, while driving variance analyses with clear commentary for CFO and senior stakeholders.

I optimize ERP workflows and automate recurring accounting processes, mentoring junior staff and maintaining SOPs to keep work consistent and scalable. I’m proud to have earned an EY performance rating of Significantly Exceeding Expectations (9.5/10) and a Best Employee Award at KPMG (2023), while supporting teams of up to 16 professionals across complex engagements.
