Grace Mwai

I am a results-driven finance professional with a proven track record in financial management, reporting, reconciliation, and operational support. Throughout my career, I have built a strong foundation in accounting principles, financial analysis, liquidity management, and compliance, thriving in both structured and fast-paced environments.

In my role as Finance Manager at Tandapay, I managed cash flow and leveraged financial instruments to maintain healthy liquidity. I prepared and presented detailed financial reports, covering budgets, accounts payable and receivable, and operational expenses. I also participated in preparing and analyzing monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements, ensuring accuracy and completeness. My responsibilities included interpreting financial data to generate insights for business decisions and strategic planning, while ensuring all financial reports met regulatory and policy requirements.

Previously, as Assistant Finance Manager, I handled liquidity management and float reconciliation, closely monitoring cash flow and financial instruments. I maintained accurate financial documentation, managed commissions and receipts, and ensured timely and precise reconciliations. These experiences sharpened my analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to spot and resolve discrepancies efficiently.

My internship at HLB CEZAM, an audit firm, gave me hands-on experience with auditing and bookkeeping. I updated accounting ledgers, performed bank reconciliations using QuickBooks, posted expenses, vouched transactions, and audited fixed assets. This practical exposure expanded my understanding of general ledger functions and compliance standards.

I am proficient in Excel, Microsoft Word, Access, various financial software tools, accounts reconciliation, journal entries, budgeting, tax compliance, cost analysis, and financial planning. My strong analytical, organizational, and research skills allow me to streamline processes and boost operational efficiency.

Beyond technical expertise, I value adaptability, teamwork, and organization. I pride myself on maintaining accuracy under pressure and approach financial oversight with integrity and accountability. I am committed to using my skills to drive transparency, efficiency, and sustainable growth for organizations.
