SILENKOSI CHARMAINE NDLOVU
@silenkosicharmainend
Trainee Chartered Accountant with auditing and accounting experience supporting compliant, audit-ready financial reporting.
What I'm looking for
I’m a quick learning Trainee Chartered Accountant with a strong educational background and foundational knowledge in auditing and accounting. I’m driven to advance my accounting abilities and support financial objectives through disciplined bookkeeping, financial statement preparation, and auditing.
As an Accountant (Seconded to Lok Timbers Pty Ltd), I conduct bank reconciliations in Xero for Bank Gaborone BWP accounts, ensuring accuracy and compliance with IAS/IFRS standards. I manage international outward transfers and liaise with financial institutions to support smooth cross-border payments, while producing audit-ready reports with clear classification of commitment fees, asset categories, and compliance expenses. I also maintain cash-in/cash-out schedules and tax trackers (PAYE, CIT, OWHT) to monitor liquidity and compliance obligations.
Previously, as an Accounting Assistant and Accounts clerk at Sondelani Ranching, I supported accounts receivables and payables, including invoice creation, issuance, and collections. I reconciled bank statements, processed month-end closings with journal entries, prepared financial accounts presentations, and collaborated with external auditors during yearly audit processes. I also handled payroll and other statutory reconciliations, stock takes, cashflow management, management accounts, and contributed to training and supervision of accounting interns.
Earlier, as a Back-office Clerk Attachee at POSB Zimbabwe, I evaluated adherence to AML and KYC procedures, reviewed banking documentation for completeness and accuracy, and prepared branch periodic internal audit reports. I’m currently building toward ACCA (Affiliate) and advanced ACCA qualifications, and I aim to keep strengthening my impact through structured, regulator-ready documentation and dependable financial controls.
