Sri LankaWhat I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and dependable accounting professional with over 3 years of experience in audit, bookkeeping, and financial reporting. My journey began as a Senior Auditor at Ernst & Young, where I led audit engagements across diverse industries such as manufacturing, hospitality, and advertising. This role honed my skills in compliance with IFRS and local regulations, while also allowing me to mentor junior staff and manage complex audit processes.
Currently, I am an Assistant Accountant at Syncorp Consultants Limited, supporting a UK-based accounting firm. My responsibilities include preparing self-assessment tax returns, managing payroll and pension processes, and ensuring accurate bookkeeping for small limited companies. I pride myself on my ability to deliver high-quality work within deadlines, utilizing cloud-based accounting software like Xero and Iris to manage client accounts efficiently.
As I pursue my ACCA qualification, I remain committed to continuous professional development and delivering exceptional financial insights to my clients. My strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently make me a valuable asset in any accounting team.
