What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior on-site finance role in a growth-driven organization where I can lead group finance operations, deliver IFRS-compliant reporting, and support C-suite decision-making through clear financial models and board-level reviews.

I currently oversee end-to-end financial operations across 8 group subsidiaries at Arthur Lawrence, coordinating consolidated P&L, Balance Sheets, and Cash Flow, plus board-level Monthly Business Reviews and KPI dashboards. I lead budgeting and forecasting cycles with detailed variance analysis, enforce unified reporting standards, and keep IFRS-compliant reporting at the center of how we operate.

Before that, at ASCO International I ran finance for a hybrid structure across 6 departments, managing statutory compliance through FBR portals and cloud-based records. I also implemented a cloud-based payroll & tax system for 100+ employees, built costing and pricing strategies from ERP-driven data, and supported internal audits through remote reporting and review.
