What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a progressive organization that offers opportunities for professional growth and skill enhancement.

I am an accounting and finance professional with seven years of experience in treasury management, financial reporting, and auditing. Currently, I work as an Accountant at Burkland Associates, where I manage bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, and monthly account preparation using Xero and QuickBooks Online. I am also involved in a special project aimed at enhancing internal procedures through quality assurance reviews.

Previously, I served as a Senior Associate at CFO Plans Pvt Ltd, where I engaged with USA clients and maintained strong relationships while handling payroll processing and financial reporting. My experience spans multiple industries, and I have developed a strong competency in various accounting software, including SAP and Sage 50. I am passionate about contributing to organizational goals while continuously enhancing my skills in a progressive environment.
