Banking operations and accounting professional specializing in cash management, reconciliations, and finance support.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I have graduate-level academic training in Accountants (B.Sc.) with background in accounting, and I’m currently an MBA student at Abuja Business School. Alongside my accounting foundation, I’ve completed leadership and management training and other focused programs to strengthen how I work under pressure.
Since August 2022, I’ve worked as a BULK TELLER/TELLER at ECO BANK NG LIMITED, handling cash and cash management, preparing schedules, processing outsource salaries, and performing daily cash balancing. I also support fund transfers, routing audits for efficiency, and follow up on pending transactions.
Previously, I’ve worked in finance and revenue-focused roles, including Senior Marketer positions where I managed investments in fixed deposits and treasury bills/bonds, handled bank transactions, completed bank reconciliations, and prepared bank schedules. I’ve also owned payroll-related computations and remittances (PAYE, VAT, WHT) and improved administration cost/commission by over 30% through negotiation—backed by advanced Excel training and strong software proficiency.
