Rita Obodai
@ritaobodai
Finance professional combining accounting, sales, and education experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated, results-oriented finance and customer-relations professional with experience across accounting, sales, and education. I have managed financial transactions, prepared statements and reconciliations, and advised leadership on budgeting and internal controls.
In banking and insurance sales roles I prospected and acquired clients, delivered product presentations, supported customers with onboarding and after-sales service, and consistently worked toward monthly targets. My experience includes hands-on cash handling and reconciliation from retail and church finance roles.
I hold a Bachelor of Education in Social Sciences and am currently pursuing an MSc in Human Resource Management, complemented by certificates in banking operations and pastoral care. I bring strong communication, client-facing skills, and a commitment to transparency and process improvement.
I seek opportunities where I can apply accounting, administration, and customer-relations strengths to drive organizational growth while continuing professional development and supporting positive team outcomes.
