What I'm looking for

I seek senior audit or internal audit leadership roles where I can drive risk-based assurance, strengthen controls, lead teams, and deliver process improvements in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am an accomplished audit and assurance partner with over 18 years of experience leading multinational audits and internal audit functions across Ukraine, Poland, and the US. I hold US CPA and CIA credentials and have worked with Big Four firms, Grant Thornton, and insurers.

My background covers IFRS, US GAAP, PCAOB standards, COSO framework and IIA Standards, with proven success advising clients in Oil & Gas, Financial Services, Insurance, SaaS, and Manufacturing sectors. I lead engagement planning and execution, risk assessment, and financial reporting improvements.

I have a strong track record in team leadership, mentoring, hiring, and developing audit practices while managing complex cross-border client relationships and multi-engagement portfolios. I drive process improvement, Finance Process Optimization, and internal audit functions to enhance control environments and operational performance.

I am results-driven, highly organized, and an effective communicator committed to delivering high-quality audit, assurance, and advisory services that support clients’ strategic objectives and regulatory compliance.
