A motivated and passionate individual working within finance to utilise my professional and personal skills in finance, business and communication.Nearly 13 years ago I moved to the UK from Canada to live with my ex partner, we married and started our family. As our family is more mature now, I have the opportunity to pursue a more challenging career in finance and management. I have really enjoyed my studies and look forward to continuing into CIMA qualification.I have an analytical approach to my work, with attention to detail, and an eagerness to achieve my goals. My experience in customer service and business ownership gives me a unique perspective in finding solutions for businesses in a friendly and understanding manner. My most recent experiences have been a fun and exciting challenge, combining my accounts qualifications with my business management experience, developing into my current roll as Accountant and Office Manager. As the company continues to transition and develop I am excited to see the changes I have implemented contribute to reaching goals and achieving targets.
