What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to enhance financial operations and contribute to business growth.

I am an experienced Accountant and Bookkeeper with over 5 years in financial management, accounting, and bookkeeping. My expertise lies in accounts receivable and payable, budget management, and financial reporting. I have a proven track record of achieving cost optimization through effective negotiation with suppliers, which has significantly enhanced profitability for my clients.

Currently, I serve as a Finance Cost Controller at Nationwide Property Investing Ltd, where I oversee financial operations, manage budgets, and ensure timely invoicing and payment collections. My role involves conducting reconciliations and compiling comprehensive financial reports for senior management. Previously, I provided full-spectrum bookkeeping services for various clients, enhancing their financial visibility and compliance through customized accounting solutions.

My technical proficiency includes utilizing tools such as Google Workspace, Excel, Xero, and QuickBooks, which I leverage to maintain accurate financial records and streamline workflows. I am eager to apply my unique skills in financial operations to support robust business growth and enhance efficiencies.
