What I'm looking for

I seek a finance role with growth to senior responsibilities, where I can apply billing, payroll, reconciliation, and tax expertise in a compliant, collaborative environment.

I am an Accounting Assistant with multi-year experience in billing, payroll operations, bank reconciliations, daily cash reporting, and taxation, primarily at PurpleAvatar in Manila. I maintain accurate financial records, ensure compliance with tax regulations, and support audit-ready documentation.

I have hands-on experience processing payroll for 40+ employees, preparing VAT and withholding tax filings (BIR Forms 2550M/Q and 1601 variants), and performing monthly bank reconciliations and daily cash position reports to inform management decisions.

I hold a Masteral in Business Administration and a BS in Business Management (major in Finance), and have completed certifications including ISO 9001:2015 and Xero Accounting & Bookkeeping. I aim to advance to senior finance roles leveraging my skills in financial analysis and strategic planning.
