What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an accounting/administration role where I can manage records, reconciliations, invoicing, and reporting, while delivering responsive customer service in a structured, fast-paced environment that supports my CPA growth.

I’m adept at working in fast-paced environments that demand strong organizational and office management skills. I independently plan, set priorities, deliver qualitative output, manage multiple tasks, meet deadlines, and provide quality service.

I’m currently pursuing CPA 3 (2026–) and previously completed CPA 1–2 (part time online studies). In my roles, I’ve maintained accurate financial records and accounting documents, processed invoices, receipts, and supplier payments, and supported monthly financial reports.

My experience also covers reconciliations (bank and petty cash), purchase requisitions, database updates for accuracy, and administrative support such as scheduling meetings and maintaining calendars. I’ve also supported payroll documentation and staff records, and assisted with budgeting and expense tracking.

I bring a strong customer service and communication mindset from customer-facing positions and front-desk operations, plus hands-on finance work across bookkeeping, invoicing, debtors/creditors reconciliation and returns preparation (including SHIF, PAYE, NSSF and VAT). I’m motivated to keep growing my accounting expertise and deliver reliable, high-quality service.
