What I'm looking for
I am an experienced financial administrator and bookkeeper with extensive hands-on experience in creditors, debtors, payroll and reconciliations gained across multiple companies and sectors.
I have consistently managed costings, invoicing, GRN processing, bank and cashbook reconciliations, VAT/UIF returns and month-end procedures using systems such as Pastel, Syspro, Multisoft and various payroll and accounting packages.
My roles have included stock and cost control, financial administration/manageress duties, order control and dispatch coordination, and time-and-attendance reporting, demonstrating strong operational and reporting capabilities.
