At TUV Austria BIC (Pvt) Ltd, I run the Karachi accounts department and own month-end and year-end close, cutting the reporting cycle by 25%. I also rebuilt the collections process, reducing average DSO by 45+ days.

I led ERP implementation and upgrades that cut manual reporting effort by 30%, and coordinated five consecutive external audits with zero material findings. Previously, I handled accounting for Intertek across Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, including multi-currency transactions and local tax compliance.
