What I'm looking for

I seek a role in administration or bookkeeping where I can apply Xero/Pastel skills, manage payroll and tax tasks, grow professionally, and work in a collaborative, supportive team environment.

I am a motivated administration and bookkeeping specialist with hands-on experience in bookkeeping, payroll, tax filings, company registrations, and office administration across accounting practices. I work effectively both independently and in teams, handling multiple tasks under pressure while maintaining punctuality, trustworthiness, and a commitment to continuous learning.

I have practical experience with Xero and Pastel, SARS EasyFile procedures (EMP201, EMP501, IRP5), CIPC company registrations and annual returns, payroll processing, and daily financial reconciliation. I bring strong communication skills, creativity in support tasks (logo design, photo/video editing), and a customer-focused approach to administrative and financial responsibilities.
