Vaishakh Umasankar

Accounting and finance professional with over 4 years of experience spanning audit, financial reporting, accounting compliance, and Record-to-Report (R2R) operations. Currently working as an Advanced Analyst within the Accounting Compliance & Reporting (ACR) team at EY, supporting MENA clients in delivering accurate, compliant, and timely financial reporting across complex global environments.

My experience includes general ledger accounting, balance sheet reconciliations, month-end and year-end close, financial statement reporting, compliance activities, and stakeholder management. I help ensure financial integrity, reporting accuracy, and operational efficiency while working with cross-functional teams across multiple geographies.

A key highlight of my career has been supporting a major client through a critical transition period, ensuring business continuity and reporting stability during a complex organizational change. I also played an active role in a reporting currency conversion initiative, partnering with stakeholders to manage reconciliations, reporting impacts, process alignment, and successful implementation.

Prior to EY, I gained valuable audit experience with KPMG in UK clients⁠ which strengthened my understanding of financial controls, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, and financial statement analysis.
