What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own accounts receivable/payroll, ensure VAT/PAYE/Tourism Levy compliance, and streamline financial processes using QuickBooks systems—working closely with teams to maintain accuracy, efficiency, and strong client relationships.

I’m a detail-oriented “Accounts & Administration Officer” with over 8 years of experience in financial operations, payroll administration, tax compliance, and office management. I’m known for maintaining high accuracy and compliance while handling accounts receivable, accounts payable, reconciliations, and financial reporting with confidence.

In my current role as Accounts Receivable at Kwalape Safari Lodge, I generate and verify customer invoices, process and record payments, and monitor aging reports—following up on overdue balances to improve the collection rate by 85%. I also reconcile customer accounts during month-end closing and use CiMSO to improve efficiency and accuracy in financial data entry.

Previously, as an Accountant at Cycad Palm Hospitality, I managed financial operations for three branches and a sister company, including VAT, PAYE, and Tourism Levy returns. I administered monthly payroll for 50+ employees, managed bank reconciliations and petty cash, coordinated with external auditors, and maintained stock control using PlusPoint Central—while training and supervising junior staff in accounting procedures.
