Dedicated Accounts Receivable Specialist with extensive bookkeeping experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an assertive and motivated professional with a Bachelor of Science in Commerce, majoring in Management Accounting. With over a decade of experience in accounts receivable and payable, I have developed a strong skill set in financial management, customer service, and problem-solving. My journey has taken me through various roles, including Accounts Receivable Specialist at Lexmark Research and Development Corp, where I excelled in managing European customer accounts and ensuring compliance with financial regulations.
Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to handle complex financial tasks, such as bank reconciliations, journal entries, and credit management. My proficiency in software like SAP, QuickBooks, and SAGE has enabled me to streamline processes and improve accuracy in financial reporting. I take pride in my achievements, including receiving multiple Accounts Receivable Excellence Awards and successfully completing the XERO certification program. I am eager to bring my expertise to a dynamic team that values growth and innovation.
