Dynamic accountant with expertise in supply chain and financial management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dynamic and detail-oriented professional with a strong background in accounting, tax, audit, supply chain, and procurement. My journey began with a Bachelor of Supply Chain Management from Jomo Kenyatta University, where I honed my analytical skills and developed a keen understanding of financial processes. As a Certified Public Accountant, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to optimize operations and achieve organizational goals through effective financial management.
In my current role as an Accountant at Fanaka Schools Ltd, I have successfully managed the preparation of payment vouchers and maintained accurate expense records, ensuring compliance with financial policies. My efforts in negotiating supplier contracts have resulted in a 15% cost reduction in procurement, while my automation of daily finance updates has increased report generation speed by 20%. I pride myself on my problem-solving abilities and my commitment to delivering results that enhance operational efficiency and financial accuracy.
