What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for growth and challenges in financial management.

I am a detail-oriented and results-driven Accountant with over 3 years of experience in financial reporting, general ledger management, accounts receivable/payable, tax reporting, and statutory audits. My proficiency in accounting systems such as Sage X3, QuickBooks, and SAP Business One has enabled me to ensure accurate financial reporting and streamline accounting processes effectively.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a proven track record of supporting audit processes, managing intercompany reconciliations, and preparing consolidated financial statements. My recent role at Jaybster Investments Limited has allowed me to improve financial reporting accuracy by 15% and reduce operational costs by 10% through process improvements and effective budget management.
