What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role that complements my finance and contract strengths, challenges me to grow, and lets me lead and motivate a productive team in pressurized, high-accountability environments—especially where audit-ready reporting and controls matter.

I’m a highly committed and motivated revenue and credit controller with a strong focus on accounts receivable and payables, invoice and credit processing, and maintaining accurate SAP-driven reporting. In my current role at British Telecommunications SA, I manage customer invoices and credits, approve supplier invoices for payment, confirm customer PO’s, reconcile supplier credits, and support monthly forecasting, variance analysis, and internal/external financial reporting.

Previously, I worked as a contract administrator and contract management intern at British Telecommunications SA, handling invoicing and billings across multiple telco accounts, resolving customer queries, and supporting inventory record updates and inventory controls. I also started as a finance trainee, building my foundation through expense accruals, invoice processing, supplier payments, reconciliations, and journal entries. I bring team leadership, conflict management, and a disciplined approach to audit and quality controls, and I’m currently building my credentials through a Commercial and Contract Management program.
