What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values teamwork.

I am a motivated and detail-oriented individual with practical experience in finance, administration, and customer service. My background includes a BSc in Forensic Financial Accounting from Logan Business College, where I honed my skills in financial data entry, record management, and accounting software. I am quick to learn and eager to contribute to any professional environment.

During my attachment at the Ministry of Finance, I captured and processed adjustment journals, maintained financial records, and reconciled multiple accounts. My role involved developing internal controls to improve efficiency and reduce errors. Additionally, I volunteered as an accounts assistant at Win Mantra Pty Ltd, where I managed financial transactions and supported budget preparation. I thrive in team settings and am committed to delivering accurate and timely results.
