FinlandWhat I'm looking for
I am a Master's graduate in sociology with a strong foundation in accounting and practical bookkeeping experience for small and medium-sized companies. I combine analytical research skills with hands-on financial operations learned across multiple accounting roles.
I have formal IT skills in SAP and Microsoft Office, completed university coursework in computer science including C#, and self-studied Java as my strongest programming language while using AI tools like ChatGPT to support development. I am adaptable and eager to deepen coding skills or contribute to administration, surveys, mappings, or expert support roles.
I am open to full-time, part-time, or remote positions and bring disciplined, research-oriented thinking, practical bookkeeping experience, and a curiosity-driven approach to technology and cross-disciplinary work.
