What I'm looking for
I am a highly knowledgeable and motivated financial accountant with years of experience in managing and analyzing financial data. My career has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a focus on delivering accurate financial reporting. In my current role as a Regional Accounts Assistant, I am responsible for overseeing accounts receivables and payables across the Caribbean, ensuring compliance with accounting principles and policies.
Throughout my career, I have developed a strong skill set in multi-currency bank reconciliation, sales commission calculations, and VAT returns. My proficiency with accounting software such as Sage 300 and QuickBooks has enabled me to streamline processes and improve efficiency. I pride myself on my excellent communication skills and my ability to work collaboratively within a team environment, always maintaining a calm and professional demeanor even under pressure.
As I look to further my career, I am eager to take on new responsibilities that will challenge me and allow me to grow professionally. I am confident that my background in financial accounting, combined with my dedication to continuous learning, will make me a valuable asset to any organization.
