What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an Assistant Accountant role where I can own reconciliations and payment runs, strengthen controls, and improve invoice workflows—using NetSuite/Sage and advanced Excel to deliver reliable month-end and management reporting.

I’m an experienced, dependable Assistant Accountant with over 12 years of expertise in bookkeeping, supplier invoicing, bank reconciliations, payroll support, VAT/FCA returns, and management reporting. I’m known for maintaining accurate debtor/creditor ledgers, supporting audits, improving processes, and delivering consistent, high-quality financial support while collaborating closely with HR and cross-functional teams. I bring hands-on ERP experience across NetSuite, Sage (including Sage 200), and Oracle ERP.

In my current role at LCM Finance, I handle daily and monthly bank reconciliations, weekly and ad hoc payment runs, quarterly reporting for fund investors, and month-end close support, including reconciliations and management information packs. Previously at Reapit Ltd, I managed end-to-end Accounts Payable with bi-weekly payment runs, supported credit control through debtor monitoring and collections, and worked with stakeholders to improve invoice approval workflows and automate transactional processes.
