Darshana Shiba
@darshanashiba
I'm an accountant managing payroll, tax compliance, management accounts, and audit support across multiple companies.
What I'm looking for
I've spent the past 10 years at Digiterra managing accounting operations for three local companies and one foreign company, from cash books through to trial balance. I prepare monthly management accounts, process payroll, reconcile debtors and creditors, and support the CEO and CFO with sales and cost-margin tracking.
I manage recurring compliance submissions including EMP201, EMP501, VAT201, IRP6, UIF declarations, IRP5s, COIDA documentation, tax clearance certificates, and BEE affidavits. I also prepare tender documentation, supplier registrations, audit packs, and ad hoc reports for internal and external stakeholders.
Earlier audit-clerk roles at H Pochee & Co and JH Greeff built my experience in audit files, annual financial statements, tax returns, internal-control testing, financial-risk assessment, VAT returns, and audit reporting. I'm motivated by accurate, efficient finance processes and bring integrity, accountability, and a strong record of loyal service.
