What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in accounting, ideally in a supportive environment that values professional development.

I am an enthusiastic accounting professional with a solid foundation in bookkeeping, reconciliations, and financial reporting. My hands-on experience in retail and bookkeeping environments has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in the accounting field. Currently, I am working as an Account Assistant at Choppies Finance and Accounts, where I perform daily and monthly reconciliations, maintain accurate financial records, and assist in processing supplier invoices.

My previous role as a Bookkeeper at Fast Alternative Pty Ltd allowed me to hone my skills in recording financial transactions, preparing sales and credit notes, and conducting reconciliations of financial reports. I am self-motivated, a fast learner, and thrive both independently and in team settings. I am eager to further develop my career in accounting and pursue my goal of becoming a Chartered Accountant.
