Saurabh Baruaole

I am a CIMA (CGMA) candidate and management accountant with experience across public and private sectors, currently supporting a £90M project portfolio at DEFRA. I focus on delivering accurate month-end accounts, variance analysis, and management reports that inform strategic decisions.

I have a strong track record in budgeting, forecasting and financial planning, having realigned spending to reallocate £1.2M to priority projects and improved revenue accuracy through cross-functional collaboration. My work at IWG introduced SAP-linked automation that replaced manual spreadsheets and improved audit compliance.

Technically proficient in SAP (HANA), SSCL, Oracle, QuickBooks and advanced Excel, I have implemented process improvements that cut reporting cycles by 25% and raised accuracy to 99%. I also led a small credit-control team and implemented reconciliation procedures that reduced overdue balances and improved ledger accuracy.

I am seeking to advance in financial and management accounting roles where I can apply my analytical skills, process-automation experience and commitment to accurate, timely financial information to support better business decisions.
