Valene Juma
@valenejuma
Detail-oriented finance professional specializing in accounting, reporting, and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a driven finance and accounting professional with over two years of hands-on experience supporting financial reporting, accounting operations, and compliance across real estate and security services organizations. I have demonstrated expertise in accounts payable and receivable, bank reconciliations, payroll processing, statutory filings, credit control, and cloud-based accounting systems such as QuickBooks and ERP platforms.
In my current role I prepare quarterly and monthly financial reports for management and AGMs, reconcile bank statements to QuickBooks, manage supplier payments and petty cash, and execute structured credit control processes that reduce outstanding receivables. I also enabled accurate revenue recognition through management fee invoicing and ETR receipt generation, and supported virtual collaboration with digital record-keeping for remote teams.
I seek a remote or hybrid finance, accounting, or accounts officer role where accuracy, process improvement, and compliance-driven financial support are critical. I bring proven ability to improve reporting timeliness, streamline billing and payroll, and maintain statutory compliance under strict deadlines.
