What I'm looking for

I am looking for a progressive company that values teamwork and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an accomplished accounting professional with over 15 years of experience in various accounting roles. My career has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a strong attention to detail, which has enabled me to achieve exceptional results in high-pressure environments. I have worked in diverse settings, from tax offices to bookkeeping positions, and have developed a robust skill set that includes proficiency in Xero, Pastel, and Microsoft Office.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed accounts payable and receivable, processed payroll, and conducted audits. My experience at Tawanda Group Accountants has honed my skills in VAT reconciliations and general ledger management, while my previous roles have equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of financial reporting and compliance. I am passionate about contributing positively to my organization and am eager to leverage my expertise in a rewarding accounting position.
