About

In my journey through the world of finance over the past 15 years post-qualification, I have come to realize that numbers tell stories—stories of growth, challenges overcome, and opportunities seized. Currently at bioMérieux as a Senior Finance Manager since 2022, I have had the privilege of leading a talented team while ensuring our financial operations run smoothly like a well-oiled machine. One of my proudest moments was achieving 100% accuracy in our quarterly financial reporting—a feat that not only reflects my commitment to excellence but also highlights the dedication of my entire team. Before joining bioMérieux, I spent over 12 years at ITC Limited where I managed monthly close activities and ensured accurate financial statement preparation. Collaborating with junior accountants during reconciliation was particularly rewarding; it allowed me to mentor them while identifying anomalies that contributed to audit inaccuracies. This experience taught me the importance of teamwork and how collective efforts can lead to remarkable outcomes. I believe in continuous improvement—not just in processes but also in people. My focus on business process improvement has led to significant enhancements in internal controls and compliance measures across departments. I thrive on challenges and see them as opportunities to innovate and streamline operations further. Outside of work, I’m passionate about sharing knowledge within the finance community. Whether it’s participating in workshops or engaging with peers online, I love discussing best practices and new trends in finance. It’s fulfilling to contribute to a culture of learning where everyone can grow together.
