Supervisor Audit & Advisory

CA Finalist turning complex financial data into clear, compliant decisions.

Usama Ali

I started my career as a junior associate and worked my way up to Supervisor — leading audit teams, building financial models, and advising clients across two countries. As a CA Finalist at ICAP, I bring technical depth in IFRS, audit, and advisory work, with real-world experience on high-stakes engagements. Outside the numbers, I'm someone who genuinely enjoys breaking down complex problems and mentoring the people around me. (Caveat: All work experience documented herein was obtained during my employment at Iqbal Yasir & Co. (Chartered Accountants), carried out under the direct oversight of an Engagement Partner & EQCR partner).
