What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote roles in Internal Audit, Risk and Controls, Governance, Risk and Compliance, or Finance Leadership. I'm available to overlap working hours with UK/EU and US East Coast teams.

At Ghulam Faruque Group, I lead group internal audits and present findings to senior management and audit committees. I identified breaches and overrides in the SAP approval system that allowed unauthorized procurement.

At Constellation Software, via Contour Software, I led a team of three on internal audit engagements and helped the organization recognize revenue accurately under IFRS 15. At United Energy Pakistan, my well cost-benefit analysis identified opportunities associated with about $20 million in annual savings.

At Silicon Valley Commerce, I headed the finance department, extended vendor credit terms, and reduced financing costs from 21% to 9%. I'm a Chartered Accountant (FCA), a Certified Internal Control Auditor, and a CIA candidate.
