What I'm looking for

I am seeking a finance role where I can apply accounting, reporting and reconciliation skills, grow technically, and contribute to transparent financial management.

I am a postgraduate diploma holder in Public Finance and Accounting with hands-on experience in finance and legal administration, including accounts management on Xero, cashbook reconciliation, month-end close support and collections. I am detail-oriented, reliable and passionate about public sector accountability, with strong analytical, organizational and communication skills.

I have completed internships and assistant roles where I prepared quotes and invoices, managed client accounts, tracked allocations, supported financial reporting, and maintained administrative records. I thrive both independently and in teams, and I apply critical thinking and time-management to meet deadlines and improve financial processes.
