Ammoie Blackett
@ammoieblackett
Detail-oriented accountant with strong GAAP foundation and process optimization experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented accounting professional with 4+ years of progressive experience across accounting, financial reporting, and operational finance in fast-paced environments. I bring a strong foundation in GAAP and cash-based accounting, AR/AP ownership, variance analysis, and stakeholder-facing reporting.
At my most recent role, I managed end-to-end AR/AP processes, supported month-end and year-end close, and prepared schedules for audits and due diligence, improving cash-flow visibility and compliance. Previously at Ernst & Young I assisted in financial reporting for multiple client engagements, supported external audits, and evaluated internal controls.
I am known for taking ownership in ambiguous situations and partnering cross-functionally to streamline finance workflows; I identified and implemented process improvements that enhanced departmental productivity by 60% and supported scaling workloads. I maintain and improve Excel-based dashboards and use ERP and BI tools to surface actionable insights for leadership.
I am pursuing my CPA (expected 2027) and completed an MBA in Oct 2024, which complements my technical skills in SAP, QuickBooks, Microsoft Dynamics, Tableau, and Power BI. I seek to bring disciplined financial control, process efficiency, and collaborative problem-solving to a growth-oriented finance team.
