What I'm looking for

I seek an accounting or finance role focused on reconciliations, reporting and transactional work in a collaborative environment that supports growth and skills development.

I am a finance graduate with hands-on accounting and administrative experience supporting accounting, tax and payroll services. I bring practical exposure to financial reporting and transactional processes from placements and short-term roles.

At Longhorn Publishers I worked within a team of finance professionals where I handled banking of cheques, account reconciliation, balancing of accounts, and preparation of daily, weekly and monthly reports while reporting to the credit controller. I am experienced in processing invoices, supplier inquiries and routine journal entries.

I have also developed strong customer-facing skills through roles that demanded order management, product knowledge, customer follow-up and documentation control, including client communication and inbound/outbound calling responsibilities. These roles sharpened my problem-solving, active listening and relationship-management abilities.

I work with attention to detail, adaptability and a collaborative mindset, and I am proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I am seeking an accounting or finance role where I can apply reconciliations, reporting and transactional skills while continuing to grow professionally.
