How A Finance Manager Uses Copilot To Fix Payments And Save Hours with Sirajuddin Mohammed
Ever stared at an error message with no clue how to fix it? Me too…
In this episode, I talk to finance manager and ACCA accountant Sirajuddin Mohammed about the moment Copilot helped him fix a failed BACS payment and turn panic into pure relief.
Siraj shares how he uses Copilot safely at work, from debugging Excel formulas to building PowerPoint skeletons. He also talks about how Copilot has helped him become more confident with his email writing in English, as it is his second language. How amazing is that?!
We dig into why those “tiny” 5–10 minute time savers add up to meaningful hours back each week, and why AI is less a robot overlord and more like a friendly teammate sitting beside you.
We also talk about the reality of AI adoption in finance teams, why so many accountants are still stuck in manual processes, and how small experiments with tools like Copilot, Power Automate and Power Apps can quietly transform the way finance works. If you’ve ever thought “AI isn’t for me” or “I don’t have time to learn this,” this conversation might just change your mind.
If you’re in finance, buried in manual tasks or nervous about trying AI at work, this one’s for you.
“Time is money, so use AI to save both.” – Sirajuddin Mohammed
You’ll hear about:
• Fixing Excel formula errors
• Creating PowerPoint skeletons
• The BACS payment file moment
• Why finance teams avoid AI
• Encouraging small workflow changes
• Tools Siraj wants to learn next
