Comfortable working with QuickBooks and IFMIS, and known for keeping records accurate, deadlines met, and reconciliations clean.

Experience
Customer Relations Officer - Pioneer Insurance
(2025-07 - 2026-03)
- Handled a steady volume of customer inquiries, complaints, and service requests daily, making sure each one was logged accurately and resolved within agreed timelines without leaving clients chasing for updates.
- Kept customer interaction records, policy updates, and transaction details current in the CRM system, ensuring the information internal teams relied on was always accurate and easy to retrieve.
- Worked closely with internal departments to get client issues resolved quickly, cutting down the back-and-forth that frustrates customers and slows service delivery.
- Ran structured follow-up calls with clients post-interaction to gauge satisfaction levels and flag any unresolved concerns before they escalated, contributing to stronger long-term retention.
- Identified upselling opportunities during client interactions and presented relevant insurance products in a way that felt helpful rather than pushy, supporting business growth without compromising service quality.
- Supported policy renewal processes by proactively engaging clients ahead of expiry dates, walking them through documentation requirements, and reducing last-minute lapses.
- Consistently resolved over 20 customer concerns per week, with outcomes tracked and reported to management as part of the team’s service performance review process.
- Strengthened repeat client engagement by 15% through deliberate follow-through and proactive communication, building the kind of trust that translated into referrals and renewed policy uptake.
Volunteer Finance Assistant - Moving The Goalposts
(2024-05 - 2025-05)
- Managed petty cash for day-to-day operations, maintaining a running float that balanced accurately at every reconciliation and left no unexplained variances at month-end.
- Prepared monthly expense reports and reconciliation schedules that were consistently ready ahead of the finance review cycle, giving the team reliable figures to work with.
- Supported budgeting for community projects by tracking planned versus actual expenditure and flagging early where spending was drifting off course.
- Recorded all financial transactions in QuickBooks, maintaining a clean and up-to-date set of books that made reconciliation straightforward and reduced the time spent hunting for discrepancies.
- Organised and maintained audit-ready documentation including invoices, payment vouchers, and receipts in a structured filing system that auditors and internal reviewers could navigate without assistance.
- Improved petty cash reconciliation accuracy by implementing a more disciplined record-keeping process that eliminated the inconsistencies that had previously surfaced during monthly reviews.
Accounting Attaché - Makueni County Treasury
(2023-05 - 2023-08)
- Assisted in preparing and compiling financial reports for departmental review, ensuring figures were well-organised, clearly presented, and submitted within the required timelines.
- Captured financial transactions in IFMIS with a strong focus on accuracy, helping maintain the integrity of the county’s financial records throughout the attachment period.
- Performed reconciliation of financial records to identify and resolve inconsistencies, supporting the department in maintaining clean and reliable accounting books.
- Supported audit teams during fieldwork by locating and preparing relevant schedules and supporting documents quickly, reducing the time auditors spent waiting on information.
- Maintained a well-organised filing system for financial records, invoices, and payment vouchers that made document retrieval fast and reduced the risk of misplaced records during reviews.
