What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative work environment.

I am an aspiring financial accountant currently pursuing my Associate Chartered Accountant (ACA) designation with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria. I have a solid educational background in accounting, with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Ajayi Crowther University and a National Diploma in Accounting from Yaba College of Technology. My academic journey has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of financial accounting, taxation, and auditing.

In my professional experience, I have worked as a Financial Accountant Trainee at SBG Insurance, where I manage receivables reconciliation, oversee OPEX transactions, and prepare monthly journals and bank reconciliation statements. My role has allowed me to implement accounting controls and ensure compliance with statutory deductions. Additionally, I have gained valuable experience as an Audit Trainee at SP Adebiyi & Co, where I supported senior auditors and maintained organized financial records. My previous position as a Junior Accountant at Apex Private School further honed my bookkeeping and financial analysis skills.
