What I'm looking for

I am looking for remote accounting positions that offer growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am a detail-oriented and reliable accounting professional with over 8 years of experience in bookkeeping, accounts payable and receivable, bank reconciliations, payroll, and financial reporting. My proficiency in Microsoft Navision and Microsoft Excel, combined with a strong grasp of accounting principles and IFRS standards, enables me to deliver accurate financial support in a timely and confidential manner.

Throughout my career, I have excelled in managing multiple clients and working independently in remote environments. In my current role as Finance and Administration Coordinator at A.A Kenya PLC, I manage accounts payable and receivable, perform daily bank reconciliations, and prepare monthly financial reports. My previous roles as Branch Manager and Accountant have further honed my skills in financial statement preparation, budgeting, and compliance with financial policies.
