I manage end-to-end SME accounting, multi-currency reconciliations, reporting, and financial process improvement.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
At FireBlitz Extinguisher Ltd, I manage end-to-end accounting for a growing SME, including seven bank accounts, foreign exchange reconciliations, management reporting, budgeting support, and month-end close.
I support senior management with income and expenditure forecasts and have helped manage 675 suppliers and 473 global clients as turnover grew beyond £12 million. I also contribute to cross-border expansion with Chinese and UK partners, pension compliance, audit inspections, and process improvements.
My earlier operational, stock-control, payroll, sales, and leadership roles in South Africa built the practical discipline I bring to financial management. I enjoy developing junior staff and using Excel, QuickBooks Online, and SOS Inventory to improve accuracy and efficiency.
