What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a new opportunity to leverage my skills and contribute to a reputable organization.

At Coral Reef Club & The Sandpiper Inn, I process vendor invoices and payments, resolve invoice discrepancies, and reconcile supplier accounts and AP subledgers with the G/L.

In my current accounts payable and night auditor work, I also perform nightly audits and reception duties. I verify cash flows and VAT amounts, prepare operational reports, and address guest concerns.

At Britannia Ship Services Limited- MARELLA CRUISES, I worked as a night auditor, front desk supervisor, receptionist, and hostess. As front desk supervisor, I supervised reception operations and trained staff to handle guest inquiries.

My experience also includes processing passenger travel documents at Foster & Ince Cruise Services Inc. I’m seeking a new opportunity to use my hospitality, accounting, and customer service experience at a reputable organization.
