Biny Ninan shares how curiosity and a strong foundation shaped her journey into finance leadership.

From building finance functions from the ground up to enabling complex transactions, her role today as Finance Director at Orbitworks places her at the forefront of developing the UAE’s sovereign space capabilities and strengthening its position in the global space economy.

In today's Member Spotlight, Marya Ahli shares how pursuing ACCA helped her build strong technical expertise while shaping her professional judgment and ethical foundation.

Now a Senior Manager in Audit at KPMG LG, her journey is marked by significant milestones, from leading complex engagements under tight deadlines to becoming the first Emirati ACCA at the firm, and the first Emirati female to progress through Assistant Manager, Manager, and Senior Manager roles within Audit Financial Services.

For Marya, success in today’s profession goes beyond technical knowledge. It requires data literacy, digital awareness, clear communication, adaptability, and the ability to translate complexity into practical insights.

Her advice is simple yet powerful: stay disciplined, focus on understanding over memorisation, apply your knowledge, and remain curious.

“Excellence is built through consistency, discipline, and doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.”
