What I'm looking for

I seek a remote finance/accounts role where I can use my accounting, VAT, payroll and SAP expertise to improve reporting accuracy, streamline month-end close, and support compliance while contributing to a collaborative team.

I am a result-driven finance professional with 13 years of experience across accounting, audit, taxation and financial management in Pakistan, UAE and KSA.

I have consistently managed month-end close processes, prepared financial reports, administered payroll via WPS, and filed VAT returns with strong accuracy and compliance.

My roles have included senior accountant and assistant manager responsibilities, where I improved closing timelines, strengthened internal controls, reconciled vendor and bank accounts, and supported external audits.

I seek a remote finance/accounts role where I can apply my SAP, QuickBooks and advanced Excel skills to drive efficient reporting, compliance and cash-flow management.
