What I'm looking for

I seek a supportive role where I can develop accounting skills, handle budgeting/payroll/reporting, and grow into increased responsibility with opportunities for learning and advancement.

I am an honors graduate in accounting with a dean's award and hands-on experience in full-cycle accounting. Since October 2020 I have served as an Accounts and Admin Officer, preparing financial statements, budgets, payroll, VAT and tender documentation while maintaining day-to-day transaction records.

Earlier I completed internships in costing and external audit, worked with Student Loan Management System (SLMS) data, performed bank reconciliations, and supported client-facing queries; I bring strong communication, attention to detail and a commitment to continuous improvement.
