What I'm looking for

I seek senior finance roles where I can lead finance teams, drive ERP-driven process improvements, ensure compliance, and deliver strategic financial insights for growth.

I am a finance leader with over 17 years of experience across manufacturing, trading, retail and services, delivering robust financial controls, statutory compliance and ERP implementations.

I have led Odoo ERP implementation across group companies, driven zero non-compliance in audits, ensured 100% UAE Corporate Tax and payroll (WPS) compliance, and managed multi-currency treasury operations.

I supervise finance teams, produce actionable MIS and financial analytics for executive decision-making, and focus on cost-efficiency, process improvement and reliable statutory reporting.
