What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my data entry, validation, financial analysis, and organisational skills to improve the efficiency and accuracy of data systems while contributing to analytical team goals.

I'm currently an Accountant at Coutts Redington, maintaining general ledgers, processing journals, reconciling accounts, and preparing financial reports for a diverse client portfolio. I investigate discrepancies, manage statutory compliance obligations, and use financial analysis to improve accuracy and reporting outcomes.

Previously, I supported accounting, payroll, HR, and operations at Findex, Belle Property, and Trekk Advisory. I bring hands-on experience in data entry, validation, quality checks, reconciliations, cloud accounting support, and client training, with a meticulous approach to confidential financial information.
