What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Assistant Accountant II with the Government of Saint Lucia, where I have honed my skills in financial management and accounting over the past 15 years. My current role involves assisting with the preparation and review of quarterly allocation requests, revenue statements, and budget submissions, ensuring that all financial processes adhere to government regulations.
Previously, I served as an Assistant Accountant I, where I was responsible for processing payables and receivables, managing payroll, and conducting audits of daily cashbooks. My experience as an Accounts Clerk III further solidified my expertise in maintaining accurate financial records and managing customer accounts. I am currently pursuing my ACCA qualification to enhance my professional capabilities and contribute even more effectively to my team.
