What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and highly skilled Accountant with several years of experience in financial management, reconciliation, and reporting.

In my current role at EDLP Nig LTD, I have successfully achieved daily account reconciliations, managed invoice processing, and prepared financial reports. My collaboration with internal auditors has helped identify discrepancies and resolve accounting issues promptly. I am passionate about analyzing data and suggesting enhancements to financial workflows, which has resulted in significant improvements in our accounts payable processes.
Previously, as an Accounting/Finance Officer at ASL Branding and Promotion Ltd, I managed the entire invoicing cycle and ensured compliance with tax regulations. My contributions to the development of internal policies and controls have been instrumental in maintaining compliance with financial regulations. I thrive in environments that challenge my analytical skills and allow me to contribute to strategic financial decision-making.
