About Candidate

I am a Bachelor of Commerce graduate with an Accounting specialization, awarded a Second Class Upper Division from Zetech University. I completed my attachment with the Makueni County Government, where I gained foundational experience in government financial operations and reporting standards.

Currently, I am interning as a Finance Analyst at East African Breweries Limited (EABL), one of Kenya’s leading companies. Here, I am enhancing my analytical skills, working with financial data, supporting budgeting processes, and gaining exposure to high-level financial planning and decision-making.

My academic background, coupled with hands-on experience in both public and corporate sectors, has equipped me with a solid understanding of financial principles and a keen eye for detail. I am highly motivated to contribute to a dynamic finance team where I can apply my skills and grow as a finance professional.

As a Finance Analyst at EABL, I have been actively involved in analyzing and evaluating end-to-end finance controls across key areas, including Supply Finance, Commercial Finance, and Credit Finance, to assess their effectiveness and ensure alignment with company standards. I led independent finance counts during stock takes, providing an unbiased evaluation of stock levels. Additionally, I assisted in organizing and running the monthly finance controls meeting, where I handled transcription, meeting preparation, and reporting. A key achievement in my role was contributing to a 4% improvement in the finance controls ratio testing, enhancing control effectiveness across departments. My hands-on experience in these functions has deepened my knowledge of finance operations and strengthened my analytical and organizational skills within a high-performing finance team.
