What I'm looking for

I seek roles that leverage my billing, audit and data-analytics strengths in collaborative teams focused on process improvement, accuracy, and professional growth.

I am a detail-oriented billing and audit professional with experience in invoice processing, audit testing, and pension administration. I combine accounting knowledge with strong data analysis to improve accuracy and financial controls.

At CPL I processed 500+ client invoices and expenses weekly with 95% accuracy, investigated billing queries to a 97% resolution rate, and identified £65K in discrepancies that improved month-end reporting accuracy.

During my time at KPMG I performed audit testing for FTSE 500 clients, detected a £500K material misstatement, reduced Partner review by 20% through thorough documentation, and identified control weaknesses with remediation recommendations.

I am studying BSc Business and Management (Data Analytics and Digital Business) and hold accounting and business analysis qualifications; I bring proactive communication, stakeholder management, and process-improvement focus to roles that require accuracy and analytical thinking.
