About Kehinde Coker-Rapu
Guided by a passion for precision and a commitment to integrity, I believe that effective accounting is more than a technical discipline, it\'s a cornerstone of trust and strategic growth within any organization. My approach centers around continual improvement, proactive problem-solving, and a dedication to building collaborative relationships that empower teams and drive results.With extensive experience across accounting, financial reporting, and operational finance, I bring a breadth of knowledge in both manufacturing and corporate environments, including private equity and public companies. My core specialties include month-end close, consolidation, financial analysis, US GAAP, SOX and IFRS compliance, intercompany accounting, and external audit management. I am also skilled in business process automation and ERP integrations, applying advanced technical proficiency in tools like SAP, Oracle EPM, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, Blackline, and analytics platforms such as Power BI and Alteryx.Throughout my career, I have delivered impactful results, leading the automation of manual accounting processes at Novelis Inc. and reducing close times while ensuring accurate financial statements. I played a pivotal role in M&A due diligence and ERP integration at Artera Services and Aquinox Pharmaceuticals, while also streamlining accounts payable workflows using Microsoft Dynamics. I am proud to have trained and mentored junior accountants, developing scalable processes to elevate team performance and ensuring compliance in multi-entity operations.My goal is to leverage my diverse international background and dual master’s degrees to help organizations achieve operational excellence and financial clarity.
