What I'm looking for

I am seeking a team-oriented accounting/finance role where I can apply tax compliance, reconciliation, and data-analysis skills while growing professionally in a collaborative environment.

I am a detail-oriented junior tax accounting professional with hands-on experience in tax compliance, reconciliations, and transactional processing within a corporate finance environment.

During my tenure at Bounty Fresh Group Holdings, Inc., I managed timely processing of invoices, prepared Creditable Withholding Tax certificates, performed monthly purchase and sales reconciliations, and summarized quarterly tax-related data using pivot tables for Income Tax Return preparation.

I collaborate cross-functionally to resolve vendor queries, coordinate with departments, and document processes while ensuring strict adherence to BIR regulations and audit requirements; I also prepared a systems-enhancement presentation to improve transactional accuracy and reduce system errors.

I hold a BS in Business Administration (Financial Management) with honors and certifications in Google Data Analytics and Bookkeeping (NC III), and I seek to contribute strong analytical, technical, and communication skills to a team-focused finance or accounting role.
