AAT qualified professional with over 5 years in accounting.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I am an AAT qualified accounting professional with over five years of experience in purchase ledger, payroll, and preparing accounts for sole traders and limited companies. My journey in finance has equipped me with a solid foundation in accounting principles and practices, and I am eager to leverage my skills as an Accounts Assistant or Bookkeeper.
Currently, I serve as an Accountants Assistant at the International Community School, where I manage invoicing, debtor collections, and financial reporting. My previous roles have honed my abilities in preparing financial statements, processing payroll, and conducting bank reconciliations using tools like Sage 50 Accounts and Xero. I take pride in my meticulous attention to detail and my commitment to maintaining accurate financial records.
With a strong background in both client-facing and technical accounting roles, I am dedicated to supporting financial operations and contributing to the overall success of my team. I am looking forward to new challenges that will allow me to grow professionally while delivering exceptional results.
