About Me

Financial insight that
supports confident action.

I am a CA Zambia Graduate and active ZICA Member (G016263) with over five years of progressive experience in financial reporting, tax compliance, budgeting, internal controls, and team supervision — built across professional services, agribusiness, and consulting environments.

I began my career at ABACUS360 Corporate Ltd, completing articles and progressing to Accounting and Tax Supervisor. Working within a professional services firm gave me exposure to a wide range of organisations across different industries — preparing financial statements, managing multi-client tax compliance, reviewing audit working papers, supervising junior staff, and reporting directly to directors.

Among the client assignments I undertook, I served as Finance Manager at Zanga African Metrics — taking responsibility for budgeting, payroll, statutory compliance, management accounts, and financial governance. In my current role as Accountant at JAKT Farming, I oversee the finance function at JAKT Kabwe Farm, including monthly and annual financial reporting, ZRA compliance, stock accounting on Sage, and day-to-day accounting operations.

Areas of Competence

What I bring to every engagement.

Financial reporting
Prepared and finalised IFRS-compliant financial statements across multiple entities — month-end close, balance sheet reconciliations, fixed asset management, and year-end statutory accounts.
Tax and statutory compliance
Managed ZRA compliance across VAT, PAYE, WHT, Income Tax, NAPSA, NHIMA, and WCFCB — consistent record of timely filing, proactive ZRA engagement, and accurate tax account reconciliation.
Management reporting and analysis
Built and delivered monthly management accounts, variance analysis, KPI dashboards, and financial performance reports to senior leadership across multiple organisations.
Internal controls and audit
Designed and implemented controls around receivables, payables, petty cash, and stock; coordinated external audit processes; and maintained working papers to professional standards using CaseWare.
Team supervision and development
Supervised junior accountants, reviewed working papers, assigned and managed job delivery schedules, and supported the professional development of team members.
Automation and tools development
Designed and deployed Python-based reconciliation and reporting tools that automated cash sales, weighbridge and petty cash processes — reducing manual close effort and strengthening financial traceability.
Values & Approach

Integrity, precision, and a commitment to continuous growth.

I believe a great finance professional is not simply someone who produces accurate numbers, but someone who understands the business behind the numbers and communicates financial information in a way that genuinely helps leadership make better decisions.

Outside of work, I am an active missionary contributing to the financial and administrative work of church and community organisations — deepening my commitment to accountability and service.
