@aminatajayi
Accountant and HR professional delivering accurate financial control and operational improvements.
What I'm looking for
I am an accountant and HR professional with hands-on experience across startups and established companies, skilled in financial reporting, payroll, compliance, and recruitment. I hold Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA) and Associate Accounting Technician (AAT) certifications and have built financial systems from scratch to improve insight and accuracy.
My background includes full-cycle accounting tasks—monthly financial statements, bank reconciliations, tax filings (PAYE, VAT, Education Tax, CIT), cash management, payroll processing, and audit support—alongside HR responsibilities such as hiring, onboarding, documentation, and workforce coordination. I am proficient with MS Excel, Google Sheets, QuickBooks and Zoho Books and consistently drive process improvements that increase cross-departmental communication and operational efficiency.
I thrive in collaborative environments where I can apply strong attention to detail, clear communication, and a solutions-oriented approach to strengthen financial controls, support growth initiatives, and enhance organizational performance.
