I used Quickbooks as finance system. I was responsible for all the major admin and accounting tasks: entering data into Excel (preparation of financial reports, VAT, invoices, prices estimates, calculating and transferring salaries, details of employees and customers). Another duty of mine was making transfers of money which significantly improved my numerical skills. I had to constantly keep up with the deadlines of payments of salaries, fees and penalties. I had to ensure I work well under pressure using my good organisation of time and management of money available. I was in close cooperation with the company’s accountant which let me gain the accounting knowledge from a professional body. My administrative and legal duties included assisting with National Insurance numbers, opening bank accounts for employees and registering them as self-employed. I had to regularly deal with Home Office, HM Revenue & Customs, Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency, Construction Industry Scheme. My initiative at work was organising office matters and layout of documents in a new, more efficient, clear and tidy way, we also started to make monthly instead of weekly payments, I prepared profit and loss graphs, budgets, forecasts and was in charge of controlling the budget. I believe all those diversified skills helped me in developing passion for finance and accounting.
