What I'm looking for

I seek a senior finance role in banking or financial services where I can lead reporting, compliance, and audit functions, mentor teams, and improve controls.

I am an ACCA-qualified finance professional with over 15 years' progressive experience across banking and Big Four audit firms, specialising in financial reporting, regulatory compliance, and audit management.

I have led accounts teams, managed end-to-end month-end controls, procurement functions, and delivered board-level management accounts and presentations that support strategic decision-making.

My achievements include streamlining month-end reconciliations to reduce reporting time, successfully managing annual Big Four audits with minimal adjustments, and mentoring finance teams to improve efficiency and controls.
