What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a finance role focused on purchase ledger/accounts payable with regular reconciliation, high-data accuracy, multi-currency payments, and clear progression.

I am a detail-focused accounting professional with hands-on experience in purchase ledger, bank reconciliation, invoicing, and payments across multiple accounts and currencies.

I hold a BSc in Mathematics and have progressed from accounts assistant to purchase ledger clerk, managing daily banking postings, aged creditor processes, and high-volume payment runs.

My roles have included end-to-end stock checks, supplier reconciliations, invoice processing, refunds, and preparing settlement documentation, all performed with strong accuracy and organisation.

I bring excellent numeracy, communication, and time-management skills, a practical knowledge of Excel, Word, Keyloop, MATLAB, Python and LaTeX, and a commitment to meeting deadlines and maintaining data integrity.
