Professional, conscientious, dedicated and passionate about accuracy. I have extensive experience as a Financial Manager in a Sub-Sahara African subsidiary of a multinational company; as well as immediately prior to that, Financial Director (and for a period acting Managing Director), of a South African environmental engineering company, which was subsequently absorbed into the aforementioned multinational. I am a strategic thinker and excellent problem solver. With my educational background and wide-ranging experience, I use my financial, legal, managerial and administrative abilities to look at things holistically. Positively influencing others and enabling them to tackle new challenges and day to day functions in a more efficient and effective way for the benefit of the company. Recent achievements in my previous employment were reducing the outstanding Debtors Days by more than 50% and achieving a 4% reduction in Overhead Expenses. Starting my practice as an Advocate in South Africa over the last year has been exciting and challenging as well as a substantial learning curve.
