@yusrasufi
Detail-oriented accountant with expertise in financial operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented accountant with a strong background in financial operations, reconciliation, and remote accounting support, particularly within the construction and telecommunications industries. My experience includes managing over 150 transactions monthly and facilitating float rotations across multiple M-Pesa agents, which contributed to a remarkable 27% increase in commission revenue. I pride myself on my ability to streamline financial reporting and documentation systems, achieving an 80% reduction in data retrieval time while ensuring compliance through effective virtual collaboration with third-party accountants.
Currently, I am undertaking hands-on training in audit procedures and financial statement preparation as part of my professional development. In my previous role as an Administrative Accountant, I successfully enhanced real-time tracking of financial records for over 10 construction projects, ensuring timely supplier payments and compliance with statutory timelines. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in a remote or hybrid accounting role within a dynamic organization that values operational excellence and continuous improvement.
