What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level business or finance role where I can apply sales and bookkeeping skills, learn financial management, build a professional portfolio, and grow within a collaborative, development-focused team.

I am a business administration graduate with hands-on experience in retail sales, store management and school support roles. I completed coursework in management accounting, marketing, project management and organisational theory while pursuing practical leadership in student finance.

At Sprout Biz Phones and Accessories I handled sales, customer service, promotions, employee training and bookkeeping tasks, including spreadsheets, balance sheets, inventory and accounts payable. I also volunteered as a teacher's assistant and served as Head of Finance and Treasury for university events, preparing budgets and managing expenses under pressure.

I bring strong communication, time-management and teamwork skills and am eager to apply my bookkeeping and event-finance experience to help an organization grow while continuing my professional development.
