@elongambrose
Aspiring accountant with a passion for financial management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and self-motivated accountant with extensive experience in financial management and reporting. My career began as an Accounts Assistant, where I honed my skills in daily transaction recording and reconciliations. I have since advanced to senior roles, including Senior Accountant at Yushili Hotel Ltd, where I played a pivotal role in establishing finance controls and procedures for a new hotel. My ability to prepare accurate financial reports and manage budgets has consistently contributed to organizational success.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a keen ability to streamline financial operations, optimize resource allocation, and ensure compliance with financial reporting standards. At Zenome Technologies Africa Limited, I manage day-to-day financial operations and provide regular updates to stakeholders, showcasing my commitment to transparency and accuracy. My experience with ERP systems like Sage has further enhanced my capabilities in financial analysis and reporting, allowing me to deliver tailored solutions that meet client needs.
