Summary

To provide evidence that financial fraud has taken place and present the results of an investigation. I am a postgraduate student in internal auditing and a graduate with a bachelor of accounting degree. I am a member of the association of certified fraud examiners and undergoing CFE completion. I am a hard working individual with 3 years experience within the world of commerce.


While my current role at Standard Bank has provided me with a strong foundation in banking operations and risk analysis, I am eager to apply my skills and expertise in fraud detection and risk management within the dynamic environment of Nedbank as a Fraud Detection Administrator.
