Dunya Zaib's Linkedin Analytics

As a seasoned Group CFO, I specialize in strategy and finance, with a focus on creating value. I have 20 years of experience in leading and supporting strategic planning and execution, risk management, and value creation across various industries (Aquaculture, farming, FMCG-food processing, textile) and markets (Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and other GCC countries). Beyond these realms, my proficiency extends to the meticulous management of operational financial activities. This includes adept handling of the accounting cycle, rigorous audit practices (dealing with Big-4, PWC, EY, KPMG), implementation of ERP systems, and a comprehensive understanding and adoptation of IFRS standards, among other critical financial operations. I hold an FCMA (Fellow Chartered Management Accountancy) qualification and an MBA, and I have completed prestigious program of Certificate of Specialization in Strategy at Harvard Business School USA and Stanford LEAD program at Stanford Graduate School of Business USA, which have enhanced my skills and knowledge in strategy and leadership. I enjoy working with companies who have ambitious and challenging goals, and who seek innovative and sustainable solutions. Currently, I am working with a group of companies to restructure their businesses in Saudi Arabia, as well as with start-ups and foreign investors to scale up and enter new markets. Previously, I led the vision-2030 strategic planning process and the due diligence process for a major M&A deal at NAQUA, one of the largest aquaculture companies in the world, where SALIC acquired 42% stake in a cash-in deal.
