Accounting department overflow support - I support your permanent staff when you face unusual projects or deadlines, such as system implementations, audits, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures or bankruptcy. I thrive under the direction of the CFO or Controller to support their project timelines and meet rigorous deadlines.Advanced IT skills and process redesign – Today’s state of the art accounting department achieves results through automating routine tasks; my goal is to help you minimize manual data entry and analysis wherever possible. Downloading data from your ERP or accounting software, performing advanced data analyses in excel and uploading data back into your accounting system allows me to efficiently help you reconcile accounts and streamline routine accounting processes. I love to train your users to achieve the same efficiencies I have so they have long term ownership over newly designed processes.Custom report design and verification – I work alongside your IT staff to define and audit financial reports in any report writing environment. Because I speak the language of both accountants and IT professionals, I am an ideal project team member who allows both departments to succeed in accounting system designs and implementations.Specialties: Because I’ve worked on so many different systems, learning a new system is extremely efficient for me and takes very little time. Software I have worked with include SQL based programs such as Visual Manufacturing and Expandable, Lawson, all MS excel applications, QuickBooks and Peachtree.
