The assessments I get from people whom I have worked with include the statements that I am meticulous, diligent, self-driven, and open-minded with thirst for knowledge and career success. Also, I am considered as an Excel, PowerPoint and Financial Modelling expert at my workplace. I build user friendly financial models with VBA programming to better inform Management’s decisions.
Samples of models Tolulope Sanni developed using VBA, and are now being used company-wide include:
• Product Profitability Model to track monthly performance of all 9mobile products;
• Coreb Funds Utilization model linking to budget and actuals to validate fund availability for proposed Opex / Capex spend and prioritize spend according to available funds;
• Post Implementation Review (PIR) model to track performance of projects and link impact to GL lines; and
• Site Diesel Consumption Model to track monthly consumption of diesel per KVA per average PHCN hours and report variance from optimum consumption level.
