Comments

My candidate has a Bachelor of Accountancy degree from a university in New Zealand, and over 25 years of experience in various financial and administrative roles. They currently work as a part-time financial administrator for a medical centre, where they manage all aspects of accounting, payroll, tax, reporting, budgeting, and data analysis. They also work as a casual contractor for an accounting firm, preparing final accounts and tax returns for clients. Previously, they worked as a part-time financial administrator for an IT company and a signage company, where they handled the day to day bookkeeping, budgeting, and cashflow using different software platforms. They are also the owner and director of a photo printing and framing business, where they oversee the bookkeeping and work in the shop occasionally. Before moving to New Zealand, they worked as the finance director and office manager for an airline services company in the UK, where they established and managed the financial and administrative systems that supported the company’s rapid growth and transition to a public limited company. They also worked as a personal assistant to client managers at a private bank in London, for over three years.

Following the end of a contract position, they are seeking either a part time position to complement their current part-time role, or a full time position.
