Dunja Vomberg
@dunjavomberg
Experienced bookkeeper and payroll specialist delivering accurate financial controls.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced bookkeeper and payroll specialist with a strong track record in bookkeeping, payroll (Sage Pastel Payroll), creditors and debtors control, bank reconciliations and cash-flow management. I have implemented efficient accounting and operational systems, trained staff, and consistently maintained accurate ledgers and statutory filings for organizations across Cape Town.
Over a multi-decade career I have held roles from junior accountant to financial controller, managing full bookkeeping cycles, payroll processing, VAT and EMP201 submissions, petty cash and financial reporting. I bring attention to detail, process-improvement experience that reduced lags and discrepancies, and a commitment to supporting business needs through reliable, timely financial administration.
