About Kadiatou

•In-depth variance analysis and business insights

I also help streamline and automate financial reporting processes, reducing manual work and improving data accuracy using tools such as SAP FI/CO, TM1, Power BI, and advanced Excel.

With a background in financial audit across multiple sectors in West Africa, I bring strong rigor, adaptability, and a sharp understanding of financial risks and controls.
