I am an experienced accounts clerk with a strong background in payroll processing, accounts receivable/payable, bank reconciliations and monthly financial reporting. I have supported audit processes and maintained accounting systems such as SAGE and Peachtree while ensuring data integrity and compliance.
At the Land Settlement Agency I manage payroll, ACH uploads, VAT/tax tasks, leave buyouts, gratuity calculations and support month-end reporting; previously I performed full accounts and CSR duties at Clark & Battoo Ltd., handling invoices, credit notes and customer-facing financial transactions.
