PERSONAL PROFILE

I am a logical thinker with a passion for numbers and get a thrill out of making sure that the numbers balance. Because of my nature, I am also very methodical in my approach to work and therefore like to ensure that I pay great attention to detail.

I like to work on a number of different projects at one time and I enjoy communicating with different people. I enjoy keeping busy and will often seek out more work when I have finished what I am working on.

I am a team player but can work well on my own initiative. I am organised and thorough and motivated to work hard and succeed. I am interested in doing some finance courses to ensure that I am as experienced as I can be for my employer.
