What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values accuracy and structured tasks, with opportunities for growth.

I am an accounting professional with around three years of hands-on experience in bookkeeping, payroll, and tax support for small businesses in New Zealand and Canada. My work has always emphasized accuracy and attention to detail, utilizing tools such as Xero, MYOB, and Excel to ensure data integrity. After taking a break to raise my children, I am eager to return to the workforce and apply my skills in structured tasks and data management.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed various accounting functions, including bank reconciliations, payroll processing, and financial reporting. My experience as an Accounting Assistant at Taxcare Professional Corporation and as an Accounts Administrator at Plexure has equipped me with the ability to communicate effectively with clients and support tax teams. I am particularly interested in opportunities that allow me to leverage my expertise in data annotation and AI support, where I can contribute to projects that require meticulous attention to detail.
