I am a Chartered Accountant with 8 years of experience across accounting, finance, treasury, and tax, primarily in the shipping and logistics industry.
I currently supervise end-to-end Accounts Payable operations, with strong exposure to cash flow management, month-end close, and internal controls. I have also built experience in accounts receivable and order-to-cash processes, including billing, customer reconciliations, aging analysis, dispute resolution, and DSO management.
Throughout my career, I have worked across multi-country operations and have taken responsibility for vendor management, reconciliations, payment forecasting, statutory compliance, audit coordination, and financial reporting. I am comfortable working with internal and external stakeholders and supporting smooth finance operations.
I have a strong track record of driving automation and process improvement initiatives, strengthening controls, and improving efficiency within finance teams. I have also supported budgeting, forecasting, balance sheet reconciliations, fixed asset management, and liquidity planning.
In addition to my technical finance background, I have experience leading and training team members. I have served as a trainer and buddy for new recruits, and I value collaboration, adaptability, and clear communication in multicultural environments.
I am now well positioned to transition into a Finance Manager role, where I can apply my accounting expertise, leadership experience, and operational mindset to support business performance and financial control.
