What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am a results-driven finance professional with over 3 years of experience in claims analysis, accounts reconciliation, and financial operations at Petro Oil Kenya Ltd. My career has been marked by a proven track record of enhancing reporting accuracy, optimizing accounts payable processes, and ensuring regulatory compliance. I am proficient in SAP, MS Office Suites, and QuickBooks, and I am committed to maintaining financial integrity and operational efficiency.

In my current role as an Accounts Assistant/Claims Officer, I manage supplier payments, reconciliations, and tax allocations with accuracy and timeliness. I execute monthly SAP accounts reconciliation and ensure compliance with statutory requirements through accurate journal postings and tax filings. My previous experience as a Stations Accountant involved generating and analyzing sales reports, managing receivables and payables, and preparing monthly stock reports to track inventory gains and losses.

I am passionate about leveraging my skills in financial operations to contribute to a dynamic team and drive organizational success. I thrive in environments that challenge me to grow and develop my expertise further.
