About George Kadima:
I am a trained public administrator in commerce and accounting from the KCA University attaining a second-class upper honor division, I am still privately pursuing CPAs intermediate levels. I also received certificate training on basic life support by the Red Cross back in 2018, and OSH Trainer certificate in 2021.
I have been working at Dwa Estate Limited, a subsidiary company of Rea Vipingo, as an accountant for the last four years, dealing with cashbooks reports and management, creditors and debtors’ age analysis, creditors’ invoices processing and remittance advice preparation, organizing of both statutory financial audits and internal managerial financial audits and other Statutory Accounting Principles and procedures in tandem with the company’s policies. I also work with the team on group consolidated accounts, budgets and sales/creditors analysis.
Before that, I was at their personnel department where I learned a lot about conflict resolution and the personnel management. Besides all that, I helped co-founding Amidak Corp, a tech company as a Management Accountant, where I improved and learned a lot about management and supervisory duties. I have worked on a volunteering basis at Mercy Care Center, a Community Based Organization at Mathare for over five years, where I got to teach their secondary school the sciences and Mathematics, and also worked as their Bursar while managing their football team and the drama club and community dispute solver. I believe that I will be the most ideal candidate for the advertised position.
