What I'm looking for

I’m seeking entry-level Business Analyst or Project Coordinator roles where I can apply requirements gathering, dashboards, and process improvement to support decision-making. I want cross-functional collaboration, clear timelines, and measurable impact on performance and compliance.

I’m a Business Analytics graduate with 3 years of experience across financial operations, audit, and retail management. In my current Store Manager role at Star Phones Australia, I lead store operations with data-driven decision-making—analyzing sales patterns, customer demand, and product mix to consistently achieve over 120% of sales targets.

I also strengthen accuracy, compliance, and performance through rigorous analysis and structured reporting. From managing end-to-end accounts payable and receivable with 99% accuracy, to supporting audits and building Excel models that improved reporting efficiency by ~25%, I’ve learned how to turn complex data into clear recommendations for stakeholders—especially when working in fast-paced, cross-functional environments.
