What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values analytical skills.

I am a highly enthusiastic accounting professional with over 9 years of experience in financial management and analysis. My journey began at Stepping Stones International, where I progressed through various roles, from Finance Internal Audit Clerk to Accounting and Grants Officer. This progression has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of donor funding management, financial reporting, and compliance with internal policies.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to excellence by ensuring that financial documentation meets donor requirements and by maintaining accurate financial records using SAGE Evolution Accounting Software. My ability to analyze project budgets and manage procurement processes has significantly contributed to the financial health of the organizations I have worked with. I am currently pursuing my ACCA qualification, which further enhances my expertise in accounting and finance.
