What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an accounting role where I can own AP/AR and payroll processing, produce accurate financial reporting, and continuously improve workflows—while maintaining strict compliance and clear, reliable communication.

I’m a detail-oriented accounting professional with 4 years of experience managing financial transactions, ensuring compliance, and optimizing day-to-day accounting operations. I focus on enhancing reporting accuracy and streamlining processes so teams can trust the numbers.

In my current role as an Accounting Assistant, I analyze and process accounting transactions while maintaining accurate AP and AR records using Quickbooks Online, Quickbooks Desktop, and Xero. I reconcile data across sources for 25+ companies, process bi-weekly, semi-monthly, and monthly payroll, handle ROEs and T4s, prepare NIL remittances and T5018s, and generate Profit & Loss and Balance Sheets with proper tax coding and journal entry accuracy.

Previously, I supported bookkeeping and payroll as an Office Manager and Payroll Clerk—maintaining records in Xero, posting receipts from Dext, processing vendor payments, managing AR for prompt invoicing, and running payroll in Wagepoint and Axon. I bring a strong commitment to compliance, process improvement, and reliable, timely reporting through professional payroll training and practical hands-on experience.
