Motivated accounting student eager to apply financial knowledge.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated and detail-oriented accounting student with a strong passion for financial reporting, audit processes, and cost control. Currently pursuing my ACCA qualification, I am eager to apply my academic knowledge in real-world financial settings through an internship opportunity. My educational background includes a diploma and certificate in financial accounting from the Malawi College of Accountancy, which has equipped me with a solid foundation in accounting principles.
Throughout my relevant experience as an accountant at Lightaceutics and Uptown Investments, I have honed my skills in maintaining accurate financial records, processing invoices, and conducting bank reconciliations. I take pride in ensuring compliance with financial regulations and providing clerical support to enhance operational efficiency. My role as an Accounts Assistant at Wats Construction further developed my ability to manage petty cash, oversee payroll processing, and assist in preparing annual financial statements.
