What I'm looking for

I am seeking a finance role where I can lead processes and teams, deliver accurate reporting, and support growth using hands-on accounting and forecasting skills.

I am an AAT Licensed Accountant with over eight years' experience working in industry and providing accounting services to external clients. I have prepared Self-Assessment Tax Returns and delivered full accounting functions for limited companies.

In my most recent roles I have led finance teams and managed accounts receivable, accounts payable and payroll processing across SMEs. I implement processes, produce management account reporting and prepare cash flow forecasts to support business decisions.

As a self-employed licensed accountant I deliver end-to-end bookkeeping and accounting services using Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, FreeAgent and BrightPay, alongside advanced Excel and data analysis to ensure accurate financial records.

I hold AAT Level 4 and AAT Licensed Accountant credentials and bring strong communication, leadership and hands-on technical skills to roles that require precision, compliance and practical financial management.
