What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level accounting or finance role where I can support bookkeeping, maintain accurate financial records, process invoices, and grow through continued ACCA development, mentoring, and hands-on reporting work.

I’m a detail-oriented Accounting and Finance student pursuing the ACCA qualification, driven by accuracy, organization, and practical execution. I combine bookkeeping fundamentals with finance support work to keep financial records complete and reliable.

Through a government internship as an Accounts Clerk Intern, I maintained and updated accounting ledgers and ensured the accuracy of financial record management. I processed supplier invoices, supported timely payment processing, and assisted in preparing monthly financial reports and budget monitoring to inform management decisions.

I also strengthen controls by recording financial transactions with accuracy and confidentiality, investigating and resolving financial discrepancies through collaboration, and supporting asset verification and inventory monitoring for accountability. I prepared purchase requisitions and monitored office inventory to support uninterrupted operations.

I bring hands-on confidence with QuickBooks, Xero, and Microsoft Excel, and I’ve reinforced my finance thinking through KPMG US Career Catalyst virtual tax simulations. I’m eager to contribute to an entry-level accounting or finance role while continuing professional development.
