I'm a results-driven finance professional. I possess a strong foundation in banking operations, which I developed through a SIWES training program at Wema Bank's Ijebu Ode branch from August 2021 to December 2021. This experience laid the groundwork for my subsequent roles, where I applied theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios.

Building on this foundation, I interned at Cephas ICT Hub from January 2022 to December 2022, gaining hands-on experience in financial management and training. My tenure as an intern allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of financial operations, budgeting, and forecasting. I worked closely with senior management to ensure seamless financial transactions, reconciliations, and reporting.

My growth within Cephas ICT Hub led to my current role as Finance Manager and Training Manager, a position I've held since 2023. In this capacity, I oversee financial planning, budgeting, payroll management, and analysis, ensuring the organization's financial health and strategic growth. My analytical expertise enables me to drive financial performance, identify areas for improvement, and implement process enhancements.

As a training manager, I design and deliver training programs that enhance organizational capacity, focusing on financial literacy, ICT, technical skills, and leadership development. My experience has equipped me with a unique blend of financial acumen, technical skills, and leadership abilities, allowing me to make strategic contributions to organizational growth and development.

Throughout my career, I've developed proficiency in various financial tools and software, including QuickBooks, Sage, and Zoho. Additionally, I possess a range of skills that enable me to drive business success, including:

• Data Analytics
• Python Programming
• Microsoft Office
• Proposal Writing
• Payroll Management
• Graphics Design
• Administrative Skills

My professional journey is marked by a passion for financial management, training, and organizational development. I'm committed to leveraging my skills and experience to drive business growth, enhance financial performance, and foster a culture of excellence within my organization.

With a strong educational background in accounting, I've built a career that balances technical expertise with leadership and strategic thinking. My experience in banking operations, financial management, and training has prepared me to navigate complex financial landscapes and drive business success.

As I continue to grow professionally, I'm excited to take on new challenges, explore innovative solutions, and contribute to organizational growth and development. My dedication to excellence, combined with my expertise in finance and training, positions me as a valuable asset to any organization seeking to enhance its financial management capabilities and drive strategic growth.
