Current Role: I am currently a 3rd year audit Trainee at Moore Cape Town. I have passed both my board exams and will be eligible to register as a Chartered Accountant CA(SA) at the end of my contract in January 2027. During my articles, I had the pleasure of being exposed to the following industries:
My experience spans both listed and non-listed entities, providing me with insight into varying regulatory requirements, governance structures, financial reporting complexities, and operational environments. I have also performed group consolidations for a listed entity and audited complex areas including property valuations and goodwill impairment assessments. The above have provided me with a strong foundation in Full IFRS as well as IFRS for SME's. As I approach the next chapter of my career, I am open to new opportunities, suggestions, and different paths that may come my way. I’m excited to see what the world has in store and where the next part of my journey will take me.
