Detail-oriented accountant with expertise in financial reporting and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and results-driven accountant with over three years of hands-on experience in financial reporting, budgeting, statutory compliance, and administrative support. My proficiency in accounting software such as QuickBooks and Tally has enabled me to prepare accurate financial statements and manage accounts effectively. I have a proven ability to ensure financial accuracy, meet deadlines, and support efficient office operations in alignment with organizational goals.
In my recent role as an Accountant at International Employment Linkages, I prepared and submitted monthly financial reports, filed tax returns, and managed creditors’ and receivables ledgers. My experience as a Cashier at BM Produce honed my skills in handling cash transactions and providing excellent customer service. Additionally, my internship as an Audit Associate provided me with foundational experience in audit and financial controls, further enhancing my capabilities in this field.
