I worked closely Mr. Yousry, my colleague, from June 2009 to July 2014. He was responsible of the annual budget of the organization as well as cash management, issuing reports and the bonk reconciliation. this is beside the daily operation related to the finance and accounting. Mr. Yousry is reliable and dedicated. he met or surpassed his deadlines. he was able to work with minimal supervision and committed to any project. he is creative in solving problems and putting and setting a smooth work flow. I highly recommend him for any similar position. this is beside the friendly and warm atmosphere that he creates. Mr. yousry departure was a great loss to the organization and I hope all the best that he deserves in his future career.
