Audit Senior Associate. Numbers tell a story, and I’m here to make sure they tell the right one!
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and results-driven Senior Associate in Audit and Assurance, with four years of experience in external audit. My expertise lies in financial reporting, risk assessment, and regulatory compliance, primarily within the financial services industry, including loan providers and other regulated entities.
Throughout my career, I have led end-to-end audit engagements, ensuring accurate financial statements, identifying control weaknesses, and providing actionable insights to clients. I am well-versed in IFRS, ISA, GAAP and local regulatory requirements, and I thrive in high-pressure environments where deadlines and precision matter.
Beyond my technical skills, I pride myself on effective communication and conflict resolution, especially when navigating discussions with clients on audit findings. I have also contributed to team mentorship and training, helping junior colleagues develop their audit knowledge and professional acumen.
Outside of work, I am passionate about content creation and have a vibrant social media account where I showcase and suggest different locations, social events and professional events to my growing and engaged followers. This also requires a level of marketing, detail orientation and studying market trends in order for the algorithm to display my content to my target audience.
I am eager to take the next step in my career with a company that values expertise, integrity, and innovation in financial assurance.
