What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a dynamic finance team that values efficiency and compliance, where I can continue to grow and contribute my skills.

I am an experienced and detail-oriented accounts assistant with a robust background in financial operations and account management. My proficiency in accounting software, reconciliations, and financial reporting has allowed me to contribute significantly to the efficiency and compliance of finance teams. I have strong communication and interpersonal skills, which enable me to lead training sessions, conduct audits, and support team development effectively.

Throughout my career, I have achieved notable successes, such as recovering 65% of outstanding fees from past students at Birmingham City University and reducing commercial debt by 20% through detailed data analysis. My recognition as a Microsoft Excel Specialist underscores my commitment to continuous learning and mentoring, and I am eager to leverage my skills in a dynamic finance team.
