Detail-oriented accountant optimizing financial processes and payroll accuracy.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented accountant with hands-on experience in financial management, payroll processing, treasury operations, and inventory control. I apply advanced accounting tools and custom macros to streamline operations and improve decision-making.
At Palace Amadia Ltd I managed purchases and sales ledgers, payroll for 25+ employees, statutory filings, inventory, and treasury — achieving a 30% reduction in staff costs and more timely, error-free payroll. Previously, I improved research data processes at the University of Ghana and delivered 100% accurate reconciliations using QuickBooks Online.
I combine strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a commitment to compliance and financial integrity, seeking roles where I can continue to drive efficiency, accurate reporting, and measurable cost savings.
