What I'm looking for

I am looking for an accounting role where I can manage bookkeeping, reconciliations, and statutory filings, with clear growth paths and collaborative culture.

I am a detail-oriented accounting professional with over seven years' experience across bookkeeping, accounts payable and receivable, bank and cash reconciliations, payroll support, and statutory compliance.

I have a track record of improving accountability and efficiency: I led stock control processes that increased accountability by 30% and sales by 20%, upgraded transaction processing that boosted operational efficiency by 20%, and strengthened filing systems to improve effectiveness by 35%.

I independently manage month-end close tasks, cash and bank reconciliations, statutory filings including VAT and payroll deductions, and vendor payments while working effectively in remote and onsite environments.

I hold a Bachelor of Commerce in Accounting and CPA Part 1 certification, and I seek to apply my strong process orientation and accuracy to help organizations maintain clean financial records and optimize cashflow and controls.
