Message

At Silvine Law, I supported directors with the day-to-day operations of a legal practice, including legal billing, client and office accounts, and compliance administration. I enhanced internal Google Sheets reporting to improve operational efficiency and financial visibility, and supported legal transactions contributing to business activity exceeding £3 million.

Previously, I handled accounts payable at Swift Staffing Agency (Greensleeves Care) and finance administration at AV Projections Ltd and Montalt Management. At Samuelsons & Co, I supported client bookkeeping, VAT returns, reconciliations and Companies House administration, and used Sage, IRIS and KashFlow for accounting and VAT-related work.
