What I'm looking for

I am seeking an accounting/audit role where I can apply audit skills and PFRS knowledge, work within a collaborative team, continue professional growth, and contribute to accurate financial reporting and strong internal controls.

I am an accountancy graduate and certified bookkeeper with hands-on experience in external audit engagements at a Big Four member firm and transactional accounting at a private development bank. I apply strong analytical, communication, and technical skills to identify accounting issues, evaluate documentation, and help prepare financial statements under PFRS.

I have contributed to risk assessment and audit planning, documented audit work, presented findings to management, and identified internal control weaknesses. I seek to bring methodical problem-solving, teamwork under tight timelines, and a commitment to professional standards to a dynamic accounting or audit role.
