What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an accounting role where I can own financial reporting, payroll accuracy, reconciliations, and internal controls—using QuickBooks and strong analytical thinking—to help teams make reliable, data-driven decisions.

I’m a detail-oriented accounting graduate and junior accountant with hands-on experience in financial reporting, payroll preparation, account reconciliation, cost control, and data-driven decision-making. I maintain accurate accounting records, prepare financial statements, support budgeting processes, and improve internal controls.

In my roles, I post daily accounting entries and maintain ledgers in QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online, ensuring accuracy through bank and account reconciliations. I’ve prepared monthly payrolls, managed accounts payable and receivable with payment tracking, supported budgeting and expenditure reporting, and assisted with journal postings, voucher reviews, and internal audit support.

I also bring research experience from analyzing financial statements and economic trends to support advisory reports and strategic planning. I’m progressing toward my Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA), ICAN qualification, and I consistently apply IFRS knowledge while focusing on analytical thinking, attention to detail, and clear communication.
