What I'm looking for

I am seeking a stable accounts position where I can apply bookkeeping, financial reporting and tax skills, support reconciliation and compliance, and grow within a supportive team.

I am an enthusiastic, self-motivated and highly organized accountant with hands-on experience in double entry bookkeeping, ledger reconciliation, raising invoices, issuing statements and processing receipts. I have prepared management accounts, drafted annual financial statements, completed bank reconciliations and handled VAT, PAYE, EMP201, IRP 6 and UIF submissions.

I hold ACCA qualifications with multiple passes and practical experience using Pastel Partner V11, Acumatica, Xero, QuickBooks and Easyfile, and I am presently looking for a suitable accounts position to apply my skills and grow professionally.
